Hey everyone, first off thank you so much for the kind words in the comments it means the most, and for any new comers I hope you enjoy the content too! ❤ I've also started making Spotify playlists with all the songs used in my videos so please feel free to check it out here: open.spotify.com/playlist/1v818FR8BMg0Hmsca1vq7y
im so happy to see such high quality video about shibuya-kei. thank you. btw p5 s the audrey hepburn complex is such a bop and the music video is immaculate too
I have been blindly listening to Japanese music for a long time now, but recently I started to dig deeper beyond whatever get tagged as "J-rock". Shibuya-kei is a genre that kept popping up and catching my attention, but eluded a clear definition. I actually came into it from a band called Serani Poji, as they contributed to this relatively obscure Dreamcast game called ROOMMANIA#203, and I'm a video game music nerd. I can't say the genre is my vibe in general, but it has a special taste that fills a certain niche and creates a unique mood. I watched all of your videos when I found your channel last week! Now I see there is much stories and a cultural background behind the genre, so I appreciate it more. Looking at this video, I can tell that your production skills are also getting sharper. This editing is snappy, and I was particularly impressed by the parallel musical analogies. It is obvious that this series comes from your honest love for the scene, and you're doing well by educating us about good music and where it comes from. Thank you for making these, and keep it up! I would gladly see your takes on more corners of Japanese stuff, or whatever you feel like.
Thank you so much for the kind words and support seriously, it goes a long way ❤️ Oh id love to tap into other Japanese genres and would love to hear any suggestions you may have especially VGM would be fun to deep dive into since a lot of shibuyakei kei and video games do go hand in hand like katamari, beat mania and so on :D Ps. Mannnnn the story of Serani Poji was super interesting to me too as I’m a big VGM fan too, been wanting to try out ROOMMANIA because of it haha!
I just finished the video now, and goddamn man... What an insane amount of work. The obscure blog declarations, the sample usage and comparisons. That was some excellent job, and it must have been a very difficult video to make. Congrats and thx. Also, I learnt that Ozawa Kenji and Cornelius, 2 artists that i've been listening for a while, were parts of the band that basically was the Shibuya Kei-pionneer... It's funny considering how often it crossed my mind that these 2 artists "could have produced music for Katamari games, somehow". Well, it's not the case. But considering Katamari is basically a SHibuya Kei anthology, i guess i wasn't that far from the truth with that thought lol. I really love how everything is "connected" to some extent in that musical indie japanese electro-pop-rock-bossa scene.
Haha this video was defs was one of the trickest to finish but im glad youve enjoyed it, I really appreciate the kind words ❤!! and i totally agree its quite crazy how niche but deep rooted the genre is across alot of japanese much and how much of a role its had on other media too, i swear during research on these vids i always find the unexpected lol
wake up orange glider uploaded!!! i appreciate your videos so much the research must be insane considering how obscure most shibuya kei bands are. keep up the amazing work!! :-]
ahhh yay!! i remember asking for coverage on pizzicato five a few months ago when i first found your channel!! thank u for ur high production and quality content
heavily inspired by p5 when i was 15 and choosing an username to use across all social media platforms. still remember back then i thought they were so unique and cool
Would love to see you do a video on Supercar! 90's-early 2000's j-rock band that dabbled in shoegaze and electronic pop with some crazy cool music videos. No one has yet to make a video essay about them
what a great video! I always wanted to know more about Japanese music, I discovered your channel through the plus tech squeeze box video, I was very happy to know that there were still fans of that band, your content is great and very well done do you know about Qypthone or PINE*am? I've never seen many people talk about it, it would be a cool idea for a video
Hey much love so glad you enjoy the videos!! I'm familiar with Qypthone they are my go to when at work haha so I would looove to do a deep dive on them soon :D
