I wouldn't know, I'm not into to music that comes from Anime all that much. Anyways...

Anime Track Of The Day
Rip Slyme- Super Shooter Opening Theme From Gantz

Saturday Night Party Track
Fayray- Same Night, Same Face

Two Extra Songs Because I Feel Generous
Double- Angel
A little history on this track and what "Double" is all about. Double used to be a duo, two sisters. But one of the sisters died tragically, so the other sister made the track "Angel" and instead of using just her name for a carreer in the music buisness, she carries on using the alias "Double" in memoration of her deceased sister. Every song lyric rather you understand her or not, you will feel it. She puts so much soul into this song, she has my definete respect. She is one of the stronger stars out there.

M-Flo- Hands
The song "Been So Long" made them noticiable, but it didn't make them known as a solid group that could do much until they made "Hands". It's one of the most popular songs ever made by this group, and even though the track is old by few years, people still listen to it, in not Japan, but Korea, and heavily the U.S. So yeah, enjoy.

Listen to Teriyaki Boyz and a new chick that came out recently called Double.
Also Ai is good too. . .

Even though the name of the club is Japanese I would highly suggest anyone other than me that likes the Rap genre to check Drunken Tiger. They are pretty damn good.

God damn I have been away for months. Anyways here I am again kiddies.
Druken Tiger is great. I say them live in Seoul a year or so ago.

Yeah, but that is a Korean Rap group though. I've never seen them crossover to Japanese like BoA, and Verbal did, along with Crystal Kay.

Yo! thats like ma favorite song, there,

well heres a classic from FLCL ride on shooting star, l'arc en ciels big break.

Song of the day!
Heartsdales- Love & Joy
It was very hard to find a song to start you all out with since they are all over the place when it comes to attitude, speed, and upbeat tempos. But I figured that this was a good song to start you all out with with, so enjoy. Oh, and the purpose of the SotD is to introduce you to Groups/Artists that you probably never heard of. The second song I put is from people I've already introduced you to so you can get a feel for there music.

Crystal Kay- Flowers
Compared to "Candy", this song goes another direction. It's pretty good. I still can't believe that she's suppose to be the new vocal for M-Flo though, sounds interesting.

Can i join the club?

Yeah they are not big in Japan at all. I only heard about them through one of my Korean friends. I don't think they will crossover to here.
Another good Korean rap group is DJ Doc. They might have split up but there stuff is still great. Check them out if you can. =)

Afternoon chaps.
I've been searching for a certain type of Japanese music and I figured this would be the place to make an inquiry about such a piece.
You see I'm looking for the sort of strange/insane rock/techno Japenese music that usually involves a lot of unintelligible lyrics (preferably being shouted). I'm thinking along the lines of Pokey and the Ombaoojiebaseo.
Any help in identifying such songs would be much appreciated.

You people are well informed about the Japanese music scene. Especially since you guys don't live here. I am proud of each and everyone of you.
Yes even you Puffy fans. =)

it's the crappy cartoon of them that got me into jpop and jrock in the first place. XD

Heh, I visited Japan once and I even have many j-music albums. Also we can find out information on japanese music easily on the internet.

Well then thank God for the internet.
Bringing people together one click at a time.

Yeah of course, welcome to the club.

Sure welcome to the club.

I thought I was the only Under 17 fan here for a while

I posted on the first page. I was never made an offical member.
Do I have what it takes to be a member.
I am not really a big fan of Japanese music but I like stuff to do with Japan and I have a great knowledge about the land and music.

Music I like:

Teriyaki Boyz- Beef or Chicken
North Coast Badd Boyz (Gangsta J-rap)
Nitro Microphone Underground- Straight from the Underground
Kreva (used to be part of kick the can crew) I guess I don't really like him but he got skillz
Ayu is all right. Utada is passible. Ummmmmmmmmmm Heartdales are hot and for the best female MC in Japan check out AI.

At 3/18/06 09:26 AM, Hanshinboy wrote: Music I like...

I don't have much Korean music mainly because there are so few groups that have actually gotten my attention, but...

Drunken Tiger- MoReShiGhe
Druken Tiger is a great group, other than this song and "Do You Know Hip-Hop?" "I Want You Naughty" is another favorite of mine, along with "Stairs To Heaven". Although I must say, I think only you and I may only know about this group, ha ha ha.

And you want to talk about Nitro huh?

Nitro Microphone Underground- Akugi Den Hanashi
Mischief

I like to think of this group as the Japanese Wu-Tang. Eight angry MC's. A very legendary group

And you also like Heartsdales huh?

Heartsdales- Rainy Days
Heartsdales- FLY!
Straight out of Hartsdales New York, yes, it actually exists, comes two sisters with the ability to Rap and sing at the same time. The interesting this is that sometimes, their voices can sound so alike...

I'm no fan of TB. I like them better when their seperate and not bunched up like that. Maybe a normal collab would do. I like it better when people from their own groups produce their music. Maybe if they were apart of it as well, it would've been somewhat better, in my opinion. It was an interesting idea, but so much more could've been do with that project.

And Kreva, from the Kick The Can Crew, I love that group. Here's one of his solo tracks though...

Kreva- Goodbye
I doubt that the title of the song is actually "Goodbye, but my friend named it. No biggie at the moment. He creates his own beats, and he's good friends with Verbal, who'd have thought?

Anyway, stick around, I have plenty of Japanese music in these catagories...Rap, Hip-Hop, Pop, Indie, R&B, and last but not least, Rock. Rock isn't my genre, although there are only a couple of Rock groups that I do like that blend things into the Rock genre that gets respect from me. Those two groups are Dragon Ash, and Orange Range. Take these two tracks for example...

Dragon Ash- Yuri No Saku Basyo De
Dragon Ash is one of those groups that will be on one mood one second, but then jump dramatically to another in a heart beat. Listen to this whole track, and you will see what I'm talking about.

Orange Range- Papa
This an interesting group. They combine Rock, Electronica, Rap, and many other elements to make an interesting song. They may be leading the next step in the evolution to Hip-Hop and Rap, but this is mostly a Rock group.

To the tracks above, it's meant for the Japanese Music fan club as a whole. It is best if you listen to them to understand it all. Anyways, I was thinking that from now, whenever a song is brought here, instead of saying "That was good, and etc" Give a short review of the song, and how you feel about it. At least that way, it won't be considered spam, Ok? It will make this place a lot more legit. Anyways...

Anime Music Track Of The Day
Chobits- Tragic

Songs of the Days
DS455- Boku No Naka No Shounen
One of my most favorite songs by this group. They brought back the power of G-Funk. If you don't know what that is, then listen to the song and you'll find out. Ten respect points from me if you can guess what the title of the song means.

Soul Scream- Kuro Itsuki No Yoru
This song is a classic. It's about a night with a black moon, hah. The song as a whole has the ability to relax just about anybody. It's that powerful.

Emi Honuichi- Crying
Do not let the song title fool you. It's a great song actually. Believe it or not, M-Flo's Taku Takahashi produces her music, along with the group called Halcali. Very good song, believe me.

Kazami Feat Sphere of Influence- Rizumu
This is an uplifting song. Sphere of Influence isn't the type of person to go into gentle songs like this, but he does it anyway, and he did a good job of it. Kazami though, she is known, but not as well known as should should be.

Saturday Party Track of the Day
Michico- Bounce Baby
The song is full of energy from the beginning, all the way to the end. Trust me, it's a great track.

I would post the secondary tracks like I normally would, but I'm running low on character space so I'll do that tomorrow. I'm lucky, considering how many tracks I have. Two years ago, just when I was getting into the Japanese culture, like many people, I had only heard the anime tracks, at the moment I wasn't too interested until one of my good friends showed me the other side of Japanese music. He introduced me to a lot of groups. Hell, he even gave me four MP3 CD's filled to the max with music. So, I'm good where I stand. I buy my CD's from Amazon and yesasia.com. Well enjoy, and leave reviews.

Yikes dude you are certainly very well informed. Done your homework and then some I see.

I guess I like TB because of NIGO who I admire and respect and also they had a lot of foreign help producing the new album * chicken or beef *

Orange Range is really a pop group in Japan popular with high school boys and girls.
I have heard some of there stuff but none of it remotely sounding like hiphop.
They have a remake of the song "locomotion " called locolotion which is kinda catchy.
I would make a link to the song but I don't know how to. I am useless at internetting.

Another good female rapper named Ai who speaks fluent English is really dope.
Check out her song called " watch out " feat. Afra&Tucker. (the human beatbox machine) Here is her site Ai's site. . . They have English

Oh damn how could I forget about Amuro chan. . .she is a yummy mummy and single too. On Amuro Namie's " suite chic " ablum Ai teamed up with Amuro to make a unforgettable song called " uh uh "

That's some list MM.

Heh, I heard that and even saw the video, it was funny. Alot of Orange Range videos has white women in them, lol. And you can use putfile to upload the song.

Hmmm...

Songs that only Hanshinboy, D13Daniel, ZenGaijin, and myself can dig
Suite Chic Feat Ai- Uh...Uh
Orange Range- Locolotion
G.K. Maryan feat.Gore-Tex, Macka-Chin, Suiken & Dabo TOKYO RELAX

I've got to say, the last one is a classic. Almost all the big stars from the past making one of the best collabs ever made. I love that last song so much, everything about it is great. Anyways...

Songs of the Days!

Bennie K- My Way
This is an interesting group, they blend in certain styles and make it work beautifully.

Bonnie Pink- Private Laughter
She has an amazing voice that will get you lifted. Hear her for yourself.

Tsubaki- Kawanonagare No Youni Remix
Next to the Artist Double, when it comes to this genre, I hold her second best. Listen to her and find out why.

Tsubaki- Yokaze Ni Nosete
This "Tsubaki" is completely different. I figured, why not introduce you to both of them so none of you will get confused. This Tsubaki is a Rock group. The song is quite good if you ask me.

Secondary Songs...

Nobodyknows+- Summer
Even though it isn't Summer yet, it's getting pretty damn close to it since it's just around the corner. It's a great song that will get moving.

Dragon Ash- Morrow
This has to be at least one of their best songs, next to Let Yourself Go, Let Myself Go, this one is up there. Once more, it's blended nicely, hear it for yourself.

Rip Slyme- Tasogare Surround
It was hard picking out from this group as a secondary song, you'll see another one soon enough, but this song has a great mood to it. It can put a grin on face and make you feel good. It's nice and somber. Although the next song I put up from this group will be completely different from that mindset

Ketsumeishi- Drive
This song has a great feeling to it. Even the intro welcomes you into the song greatly with ease. Nod your head, move around, enjoy the song.

Ok, review all eight of these songs above this message to make things legit around here. Tell your opinion, what you liked about the song, and etc. See ya another time.

Wow, I liked most of those songs, especially Uh...uh.

That's all good, but what I'm trying to do is give out links to these songs, then after each one, write a little passage about how you felt about the song, what you liked or disliked about it and so on, it's one the only ways to prevent meaningless posting.

jeez this is filled up with posts of music...

Nice songs MM, especially TOKYO Relax,

why not check on these:

Some songs that I like:

Orange Range: Kizuna
A good song, a dedication to their hometown is what the song is about I think.
A sad song, especially since it's made just after the drummer left.

M-flo ft EMYLI and YOSHIKA: Loop In my Heart
I don't know why I like this song, it just gets to me.

ANIME SONGS:

Opening and Ending to an anime, the anime is for you to find out. But it's pretty easy to know.

FLOW: GO
I just love this song, it's a pretty good fight song. Good for a action scene in a movie.
FLOW is one of my favorite bands, their style is similar to Orange Range but you can notice the difference.

Raiko: Alive
I just like the flow of this song. Pretty good but I have little info on the band though.

POP Queens

Namie Amuro is the Queen of Hip Pop, she is definitely a good singer and dancer.
Here are two tracks from her. Note: The second one has quite a share of dirty lyrics, ho ho ho.

WoWa
Want Me Want Me

hitomi- Another succesful pop singer, especially for a mom. Her style is a bit different from Namie, with her cute voice she sings so wonderfully.
Here are 2 tracks. 1 about how she's just a normal japanese girl(so normal japanese girls act like sluts eh? j/k) and a love angel song.

Japanese Girl
Love Angel

Rocker Girls

Besides, Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi, these 2 are my favorite girl rockers.

Tommy Heavenly 6: Ready
This song just gets to me, when I feel lazy and there's a bright day ahead of me, I turn up this song and scream GET READY!!! and I end up with a smack in the face from my dad.

Nana Kitade: Kanashimi no Kizu
She's quite new, I think. Her style is quite the same as Tommy. Still a pretty good song.

I've got to say, I have about 75% of those songs, thanks to my friend. I think we should take turns when it comes to songs, making it work somehow. What I want is Mic Banditz two albums, as well as all four M-Flo remix albums that I know of. Like I said before, check out yesasia.com if you want to but Japanese music, they've just about got it all. Nice tracks, and of course Tokyo Relax is good. The beat from that song is so damn soothing.

I can't even listen to the songs. What's wrong with my crappy pc..........
Well I guess I can make suggestions for songs. I don't want to be totally useless.

It seemed some of you enjoyed " uh uh " that is great. That's my favorite Amuro song.

Here is a pic of her in case some of you don't know her face.

My, I had no idea Namie Amuro was so thin, yeah you forgot the pic.
The queen of hip hop looks pretty good....

What do you people think about Johnny's ?
