The Official Japanese Music Suggestion Thread

Recommended Posts

hi, i'm a huge noob just getting into jpop. so far i really like wednesday campanella and perfume, so recommendations along this line are great. i practically know no other japanese artists, except some akb stuff, so any thing from the most entry level to the deepest cuts work for me.

 

for reference, i like western artists like grimes, chvrches, m83, kavinsky, bleachers, purity ring, passion pit, etc. i love electronic, synthy stuff

 

any recommendations would be awesome, thanks!

you're welcome! the amazing thing about jpop is that it's soooooo diverse and as soon as you start peering into that rabbit hole it just keeps going and going.... ahmagahplz.png  you'll find some great things down there, enjoy!!

any other artists with music similar to this? I came across this guy's music while browsing /r/jpop and since I don't have an account on there (and don't intend to), I thought I'd ask here. 

 

Hmmm.  I'm reminded a lot of some of HY's more 'Okinawan' ballads.  Perhaps a little of Rie Fu as well.

Speaking of Rie fu, I just did a search for her latest stuff, and looks like she has a new album coming out on the 6th of September!!  https://riefu.com/contents/114620

 

First single from the album: Better View {official video}

After going through the majority of this thread i'm still gonna ask some recommendations

I really love babymetal (but strongly dislike for example perfume), currently looking for upbeat songs, nothing wrong with slower ones but just not looking for them.

Also fan of onelifecrew, shiho nanba ect.

I am very picky on voices, and easily dislike them, if you have a group where you weren't sure about the vocals from the start I probably won't like them.

I like energy in my songs but that doesn't necessarily mean EDM, in western music i'm a big rock fan. Also listen to some Kpop from time to time (Bts/monsta X/Apink) so anything like that might also be nice, also + points if i can find it on spotify :')

Ooh maybe i should add, i'm way pickier on female voices, and I hate songs that try to be too 'edgy' if you know what i'm saying

 

Damn I'm full of demands these days LOL

Try listening to Emi Maria, Suchmos, DADARAY, Awich, AKLO, BiSH, WEDNESDAY COMPANELLA, and Taichi Mukai 

 

AKB48 I think you should listen to River

Need Help! I saw this song maybe last year or early this year but could only find it on vimeo... the band was sorta metal style with a female lead and a guy doing screaming. their name was something "No Mask" im pretty sure. Pretty sure at least one of them wore a mask or you never saw the womans face. The music video had a light blue room too i think. if anyone could help you would save my life

It's been a while since I listened to some J-Pop but I'm looking to get back into it again. Some of the artists I liked before I got heavily into K-Pop were Ayumi Hamasaki, Meisa Kuroki, and Koda Kumi especially the song she did with DBSK (Last Angel which was how I got into K-Pop in the first place). Please feel free to throw some suggestions my way!
