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.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
