What are some alternative musicians from Japan that you enjoy listening to? Recently, I've been reacquainted with The Boredoms and Acid Mothers Temple. The Boredoms have such a great catalogue, that it's hard to not like at least one album by them and band member, Yamantaka Eye, is involved in numerous side-projects.

Also, I found out that gekiga artist, Keiichi Ohta, was a part of a musical project back in the 80s. Not sure what to pit under, but it sounds nice.

Have you heard of Tatsuya Yoshida? He's been in a few bands, similar sounds to the Boredoms.

Besides his current participation with Zeni Geva, my favorite project of his has to be Imahoritsuneoyoshidatatsuya with Imahori Tsuneo.

I just dont get it. I listen to Denpa, anime shit and Vocaloid. 3 types of music that you cant get in English but on rare occasions. The benifit of such a thing is you can listen to female voices with out understanding what they are saying. For some reason when I do understand them, I cant stand to listen to them. So I dont have any English female vocalists that I like. Listening to Japanese men sing is horrible. They sound like they are passing gas or whining about something. Listening to Nip Alternative is the bottom of the pile of shit, were its most moist and smelly. You should feel bad for having such shitty taste. In 10 years you will look back at these times with even more shame than you have now.

Isn't all music catering to a market/audience? Although, I'd argue that the majority of the music being posted in this thread isn't as commercially stunted as denpa/vocaloid music, so maybe music is a means of self-expression? It's a tough theory to conceptualize, I know.

Bullshit. Making denpa doesn't make you money as it's extremely niche even in Japan (except maybe for MOSAIC.WAV and whatnot). Most albums are like 500 yen too. It's "by fans, for fans" kind of stuff. Even J-Core is getting commercial now compared to it.

Hipsters go here.

>> No.9113320

>>9113290
>Hipsters
“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.
It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.
Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).
You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.
The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.
Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.
tl;dr: if you believe hipsters exist, you are a plebeian.
