Who is YOUR favourite japanese musician??


Recommended Posts

Utada gets the big thumbs up from most of the Japanese population aswell... as for me I've been an Ayu fan for ages and ages. What a hottie... some of her songs (and I emphasise SOME!) are pretty good IMO.

The lo-fi punk/rock scene is pretty good - couldn't care less for the mainstream dribble. It's amazing that some of the (almost 'garage') bands get record deals and airplay though - I guess the size of the market allows it.

husking bee - is my recommendation

would love to see them at fuji rock this year (which is in my neighbourhood) - that has to be one of the best festival line-ups ever pity about the ticket price... A$480 has to be the just about the most expensive general admission ticket of all time

i like the j-rock stuff myself but my all time fave will have to be HYDE and L'arc en ciel..though they are the same thing pretty much..haha. anyone know where i can buy a Hydeist t-shirt?? I think Bonnie pink rocks too but larc will always be one of the greatest. Utada is good only cause she has that U.S hip hop background and she can sing english:D:D

The stuff by MOVE (the super Eurobeat you'r talking about) seems the second best thing out of japan i've ever heard, I think they're really good and i was a fan even before i ever heard of initial d .

The BEST music is definelty anything SUPER ROBOTS related; ie: Mazinger z's Ichiro Mizuki, Grendizer's Isao Sasaki and even the new generation like Hironobu kageyama (well know for his songs in Shin Getter robo). also i like some of JAM's music , but not all. only the ones that dont have the two girls in them (dont like them and dont know their names).

any more super robot fans here????

I have heaps of SEB on mp3, but even better are the Video OPTION drift vids with SEB mixed over the top. The Super Eurobeat presents Boostin' Hot ones with Dave Rodgers tracks mixed over the top are grouse. There's one with a "Smoke on the Water" SEB remix on it that's just clips of all these guys drifting in the rain and loosing it into the mud, flying into an embankment and front/rear bars flying everywhere.

They're made by avextrax, who are the same people that distribute ID.

But yeah, anything by Move is great. Night of Fire is a great SEB song, a real bad influence whilst driving though. Especially if you've watched a fair bit of ID. :rofl:

www.eurobeat-prime.com and eurobeat.org is your friend. You guys should get the JGTC special torrent.

most of the SEB stuff is all italian only (think after SEB 101 they started including japanese ones), most of the J-Euro stuff is Ayumi remixes or MAX.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
