This genre of music is so enchanting. Jazz-Fusion or whatever it is you might classify this as just makes me feel good. Hopefully I'll be able to pick this album up on vinyl soon
I have sweet memories being in a garden at a friends house in summer. I was 10 years old and when this album played I only wanted to do only one thing in my live. Making music like this
i'm 8 years late but my dad did exactly the same thing (which is how I got here). I heard it in an old video my dad showed me of him and remembered it instantly. Funny how this is one of the first things i see.
In the 80's there were no unemployment in Japan (and not only I suppose), everybody was in the middle class, no one too rich no one too poor... Unlike today :(
I know what you mean. I've constructed a playlist of about 500 of what I think are the best pop songs of all time; most are from the 80's. 18 of them are this decade K-pop but that well is drying up.
The first time I heard this song was when Sony's "first generation Walkman" was released. Every morning, take a crowded train to the world of "Mint Jams". Now that I'm working from home, it's one of my favorite routines to listen to to relax before I start work.
@@joel.solano59 That dude really made a whole name for himself by taking every good vintage Japanese song and throwing some overly compressed drums on top. This song was already perfect.
All Mint Jams songs were recorded live in concert and mixed down in the studio! You'll be surprised by the great quality, right? Also You can hear the audience cheering at the ending of "Swear".
This song makes me thing of 2 things 1. An 80 cartoon about the human body I watched as a kid (Once Upon A Time: Life for those wondering) 2. The lift in the building my old psychiatrist was in (it was on the 28th floor, long way up)
I know this sounds cheesy and cringe af but when i went to japan a couple years ago i played this album and a couple other jazz fusion albums on the plane ride from chicago to tokyo and when it landed "Take Me" came up as I got off the airplane. And maaaaan it was euphoric. Hell of an experience, and the first time I've ever left the U.S! I'm 1000% coming back if I get the chance. I love this album
so i woke up randomly at 4:34 am then i found this song in one of my liked vids so i gave it a listen. then i reminded myself to do my filipino activity that i was afraid to do because what if i fail? my score was half of the perfect score tho but i think thats ok. then after that i played some epic minigames, and now i listened to this in online class and will do it again because i just added it to my epic playlist
Wait, Macross 82.99 has a song named night in Tokyo part 2 and it sounds almost identical to this. I knew it sounded familiar, but didn't know it was basically ripped from mint jams
I remember when this was all over RUclips's recommendations 😄 This track is great for living is a big city. I would not eat mint jam though, even as a mint lover, it sounds gross 😅
The Telegothika I think it sounds more complete due to the amazing reharmonization in elec piano. Level 42 keyboardist is very prolific but never played so full of tensions like this one.

Instrumental City Pop is the genre : )
@@brennanwilkins9655 you can call it jazz-fusion too
@@brennanwilkins9655 it is fusion jazz, or jazz-fusion or whatever.
@@okkokarsama1596 japanese jazz fusion
Fusion jazz, but city pop sounds nice too
The guitar solo starting at 1:46 melts my soul.
簡単な演奏しているみたいですよ。
Literally why I’m here lmao
So very true
Yes
@@金子ひでひろ-l7h いやトリプレット連続ムズいんだよ。３ヶ月かかって未だにできない…
Music like this will always sound fresh and modern.
i got here traditionally looking for more songs that are jazz fusion.
i love this style

reminds me of my dad listening to this tune when i was a kid..30++ years ago!
where are you from?
I'm from Malaysia
@@rohaizamroosley1845your dad has a great taste

This feels like the theme of a largely populated Pokemon city at night
Tyler Lisbon damn I was going to say that
i would call it a short city but what do i know.
Many of Nintendo's greatest composers were greatly influenced by jazz fusion akin to casiopea, so it makes sense
I think you mean japan in the 80s.
@@keinem1235 not alot
I know things weren't perfect in the 80s just because it isn't today, but the music was so good
Goborobo um today isn’t perfect either…
In the 80's there were no unemployment in Japan (and not only I suppose), everybody was in the middle class, no one too rich no one too poor... Unlike today :(
Seeking perfection is futile. Imperfection is true beauty, so just enjoy it for what it was and still is today :)

GuppyG, the 80's weren't perfect, but definitely a lot better than today
Imagine listening to this tune while standing on a balcony in the sunset and hugging the person you love from behind. Ah, feelings.......
最初のスネアの音聞いただけでもう惚れ惚れしてしまうわ💖

向谷さんの演奏センスとGS1の音色がたまらん！！
キラキラBGMにも加えていいみたいですよ。
The sandwich makes me strong
向谷さん、冴えてるよ。
This song has no business being this good
indeed
That's where you're wrong my friend, this song has EVERY business being this good
A very short man brought me here
PogU ShortWig
4'8"
Sniper. Get Down!
Pog champ
Ōetsu Nimaya you spelled PogChamp wrong. I spit in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smells of elderberries.
The video of the guy driving the dogs around sent me
The opening jingle is what makes this the definitive version of take me in my opinion
「つれてって。」
30年以上経っても、これ、忘れられない。
名曲だね。
"Take me." ...
I never forget this trak over 30 years.
Hall of fame.
アナログGS1の音が泣かせます。。
My favorite fusion jazz instrumental music.
夢色のBGMにも加えていいみたいですよ。
I've never found one better than this.
MASTERPIECE
The Night In Tokyo and Night In Tokyo Pt.II, both by Macross 82-99.
@@joel.solano59 Thanks my guy

Casiopea 1rst = greatest jazz fusion band
Casiopea 2nd = greatest pop fusion band
Casiopea 3rd = greatest no Minoru Mukaya band
Minoru is Casiopea
@@Fr33zeBurn Issei is the best at making songs but Minoru is the soul and the best techically
@@jund39 Haha yeah I was being a bit hyperbolic but I do not enjoy any Casiopea without him!
「TAKE ME」はYAMAHA GS1で演奏するべくつくられたような楽曲だ。本当にこのＦＭ音源の名機とマッチしている。またＧＳ１にしても、この曲ほど機材の持ち味を存分に活かした楽曲もない。アンサンブルエフェクトの重厚な揺らぎが非常に心地よい。カシオペアにはずっとＧＳ１を使い続けて欲しかった。あの時代はシンセサイザー業界がいけいけの時代で、新しい機材こそ素晴らしいと思われていたのだが、リリースから３０年以上経ち、あらためてＧＳ１が名機だったことが分かる。
元気印のBGMにも加えていいみたいですよ。
良い感性ですね！
発売当時も今も鳥肌ものです。
やっぱり、いいですねぇ～
ぎっしりスマイルBGMにも加えていいみたいですよ。
何度も聴いても飽きの来ない、フュージョンソング。聴きごたえの有る懐かしさ。
i remember a racing game from my childhood i played with music exactly like this style i miss that game
Someone said it reminded him Gran turismo.

listening to this music more than 10 years and still haven't enough
Amo esta canción con todo mi corazón, me relaja en momentos abrumadores y me da calma y relajación.
All Mint Jams songs were recorded live in concert and mixed down in the studio! You'll be surprised by the great quality, right? Also You can hear the audience cheering at the ending of "Swear".
The section after 2:40 has to be one of my favorite moments in music period
I just love the beginning with the drum hit
I’ve listened to the whole album straight through so many times it feels wrong when it just ends
This is most favorite tune, so cool!
If you're jamming to this in 2022 you're awesome!
Take Meは3ｒｄじゃなくてやっぱりこっち。2：26から4：04までの向谷さんのメロウな演奏は唯一無二。
The plan is simple. Evade my taxes while getting offered new pieces of music from a very short man
What's this short man thing? Please explain.
@Benjamin Monroe Thanks!
I'm never going to escape this song.
Macross 82-99: Night in tokyo pt II sent me here
+QuasarCombineElite Me too man, Macross made me fall in love with this awesome funk band
yep, I've started to love Japan funk thanks to Macross 82-99
+BlitzWindshield And so, wich one did you preffer ?
I'm stuck between the two to be honest
Macross is better
なぜかおすすめに出てきた………しかも深夜に………最高
Okay so is this song in a video game?? It sounds so frickin familiar. Like Marvel Vs Capcom 2 or something. Its driving me nuts
Wii Sports
Reminds me a bit of Persona-styled music
Hell yeah to the cassiopea song, one of the best jam bands ever
that dog can drive
I wonder who's still listening to this in 2021. Man it sounds really good
now its 2023.
I love how supportive the comments are. The song and comments have the same vibe.
This song makes me thing of 2 things
1. An 80 cartoon about the human body I watched as a kid (Once Upon A Time: Life for those wondering)
2. The lift in the building my old psychiatrist was in (it was on the 28th floor, long way up)
Pero tampoco me cuentes tu vida
this song makes me think of all the happy moments in my life
and also my crush
same!!!!!!!!!!!!!! when i pressed "replies" i knew it would be something about a crush.
@@randomshorts0208hahah😅💗
i binged this song during one of the worst times of my life and it does the opposite for me bc of that. it's useful when i want to reflect tho yk

クリアーーな良い音色💘✨🎶💕ミントは落ち着くし綺麗さは最高ーー✨
I came here for the 4chan guy, im feeling better already, thanks 4chan guy.

Currently at 2:09

Commenting so I get an update when you inevitable cover it on your channel

Wow, that tall guy with no acne and even eyes has some good taste!
Wow, what a nice song just to vibe to.
Keyboard solo at 3:26 is wonderful
Me siento tan bien oyendo estos chicos 😎
legendary and timeless
最高に素敵！
I am immovably convinced that they play this at the gates to heaven.
I know this sounds cheesy and cringe af but when i went to japan a couple years ago i played this album and a couple other jazz fusion albums on the plane ride from chicago to tokyo and when it landed "Take Me" came up as I got off the airplane.

Yeah, Macross sampled this song to make Night In Tokyo Pt. II
Isso é anos 80 puro!😍

Gotta say, chat really had some bangers pulled out for the stream
Which stream was it?
Maaaaan... This is so GRAN TURISMO 2
This track needs multitracked Michael McDonald vocals. It's perfect as is, but add those in and it could retroactively change the past.

What is birb?
00:22 is just the best
I remember when this was all over RUclips's recommendations 😄 This track is great for living is a big city.
I would not eat mint jam though, even as a mint lover, it sounds gross 😅
