@HataVNI Bruh, the lyrics in TUYU's "I'm getting on the bus to the other world, see ya!" K.O.-ed me- 🙃 It would have been nice for its sequel song "If there was an endpoint" to be linked too - the entire story/ intended message is only complete that way. 🤧

--------------------

Anyway, I'm here to share some songs and music that I think are nice as nighttime/ bedtime music.

Videos under spoiler blocks.

  • Epitone Project - 선인장 (Cactus)

Have a great weekend and week ahead~ 🌠

Please forgive my spam, but I really have to share it with you (and I'm actually listening to it on repeat for a last few days :D )

Recently I did a cover of "Yume no Tsubasa" (a song written by Yuki Kajiura, originally from "Tsubasa Chronicle" anime). I love this song, and wanted to do it for a long time, but it absolutely needs a female singer. And some time ago Yoko Matsuura (japanese local singer-songwriter from Otsu, whom I befriended thanks to very unexpected chain of events) invited me to do a collaboration video - so I suggested doing cover of this song together, and here's the result:

I played the keyboards and did all the programming and editing, while Yoko played piano - and we're both singing of course :)

bit generic, but in a pleasant way

That's my impression with a lot of japanese pop music :D I'm not opposed to generic music, as long as it's nice :)

As for my listening - recently I'm mostly listening to either Seiko Matsuda's or Akina Nakamori's 80s hits compilations :D

Good to see you back online :)

Interesting. Perhaps a bit too, how to say it..."cold"... for my usual taste, but neverheless interesting and well played :) 

Aye, she definitely has a very specific sound/vibe she's going for, but I found it admirable how much it stands out when even the better parts of Japanese indie pop are usually very samey. The sound and her whisper-singing could be annoying to some ears, but it's surprisingly skillful for someone this young. :)

 

Oh, and while I'm chain posting, why not drop another underrated thing ;]

Yeah, definitely skillful. I guess whisper-singing is not my thing, if used as a default mode ;) And yeah, she definitely has quite "non-japanese" sound. My problem is that I actually like that "sameness" of japanese pop - their "vintage"/old fashioned melodies and chord progressions, that make it stand out from the modern mainstream euro or US scene.
