I should really follow some of these, the names I recognize are artists I'm already pretty into. Thanks!
So I went to a live performance by these guys by chance and ended up falling in love with them. Their name is HONEBONE.

This might barely count as japanese music but Mark De Clive Lowe who some of you may know if you listen to nujazz recently collaborated on an album with a bunch of diiferent players from the japanese jazz scene new and old. He worked with Kohei Ando (MELRAW) Shun Ishiwaka (CRCK/LCKS), Sauce 81, Hikaru Arata (WONK), and then some members from Kyoto Jazz Massive, Cro Magnon, Rootsoul and Sleep Walker.

It helps that i have a computer that won't struggle to load this thread now lmao. My old computer was miserable with embeds
I don't know what kawaii bass is but Pasocom Ongaku Club released an amazing album. Hasegawa is on it actually, doing the vocals for the last song.
Chouchou!
They generally mix electronica with some nice piano melodies. This album in particular is their "experimental album", but their songs generally are pretty similar to these.
They'll release another album in December, as part of their "theme" series, from which came my favorite song of theirs:
This song in particular has a strong breakcore vibes. This year, Suiyoubi no Canpanella's producer, Kenmochi Hidefumi, released an album in that vein:
There's also Laxenanchaos, but the EP he released this year sucks compared to last year's album he released with Virgin Babylon Records. The only song I liked from that was this:
This is some great music. Wasn't something I would actively search for, so thanks!
Spotify only has 2 albums, but I like that Oort seems to get crazier with every track.
They have a bancdamp with all their albums, if you want to checkout out more of their stuff: https://chouchou.bandcamp.com

Has this band been posted before? Relaxing. Some of their songs have some bangin' bass, too.
I was wondering why I could only listen to three of the songs on that album the other day. I didn't realize that the album wasn't even out! Kurita , this was the album I was getting that error from. The error should've told me the real reason!Shun Ishiwaka (CRCK/LCKS drummer) is releasing an album on December 4th under the name Answer to Remember
Yeah they announced it early November. Try this for the info: https://natalie.mu/music/news/354519
There will be a CRCK/LCKS album on that day too, gonna be a good day for Jazz.

wut? temporary just came out. it really is christmas i guess lol
I know, right. Had to do a double take when I saw the news. It's going to be short (6 songs) like their first two mini albums, and I hope it's as good as those two too =P
Goddamn, I didn't know about any of these, Christmas came early!
(also I really need a better way to keep track of upcoming Japanese releases)

Loved every single minute of it!
Man, January is already looking amazing, a lot of albums to look forward to : King Gnu, Shishamo, Ame no Parade, Kyuso Nekokami, Polkadot Stingray, XIIX's first album, Cider Girl, Necry Talkie's major debut album, Fabled Number, Survive Said The Prophet.

I forget. What happened to ・・・・・・・・・? They're on hiatus or they broke up? (also why?)
Last edited:
they broke up but in an incredibly cryptic fashion, saying something about other planes of existence or something stupid like that
the real reason is that they dwindled from like 8 members to 2 or 3 and then just fizzled out

So lame. I need more.
Yuasa is the best! I like his movies.
You might be interested in RAY, which the ・・・・・・・・・'s management team supports. They're pretty new tho.
