Okay /jp/ I've been searching the interwebs for awhile with no luck. I'm looking for some traditional Japanese musicians that are respectable. Like the Ravi Shankar of Nippon. Albums are preferred if this actually gets any responses.

>> No.2742870

I'm interested in this too; I asked about this on /mu/, and I just got saged like hell.

Reported for /mu/ content on /jp/.

If only there was a board for discussing music.

If you want something Ravi Shankar-esque
Try Acid Mothers Temple.

If you want traditional music, well, I can't really help you there.

The only thing I can think of is the Okami soundtrack.

Well, if you want board anarchy then that's fine with me. Don't come back here whining to me once this board has become /b/-lite.

What in the thread topic has anything to do with /b/? It's a fucking question about Japanese music.
This forum is 90% touhou and VN's already. This place is far from becoming "/b/-lite".

This is probably the best suggestion I've seen so far :) Every musician I come across its always something similar to SANSHIN MIXED WITH ROCK.

In that case KS doesn't belong on /jp/, and while that would be nice, it's not true.

Speaking of which,

Search for 'Yoshida Brothers'.
Not exactly traditional, but it's down your avenue.

>> No.2742944

Most of Japan's respectable musicians can be found playing for various orchestras around the world. However, that only gives you technical skill as a musician, but doesn't say anything about having any actual skill as an artist.
Their list of respectable composers is extremely short and can likely be found on wiki or some place if you are actually interested.

Actually, you could likely have (and very much should have) just googled or wikied this info instead.

There are no Ravi Shankars of Japan. It's just Japanese wanting to be Mick Jagger or Madonna

First of all I've already confirmed that the mods delete threads such as this. (I too have made these threads in the past). Secondly, the word Japan is too ambiguous. With your logic we could talk about manga on /jp/ simply by saying "ITT Japanese comic books."

If you look at moot's sticky he said /jp/ will be a place for stuff that *lack their own boards.

At any rate, I no longer care. Carry on with your anarchy.

Look for artists on Last.fm,
find their albums on Soulseek.
Proceed to look eclectic and cultured with your newfound tastes.

Touhou, Visual Novels, Idols, Nico, Doujin games, Neta, Hatsune, Idolm@ster, eroge - just to name a few.

These are all subjects that lack their own board. Thus they don't contradict this sticky >>2742980

Kimio Eto.

And that's all I found. Can't even find him on amazon.

I'll never understand the purpose of these threads. At the end of the day there's nothing special about Japan. Their culture is pretty much the same as every other Nation out there. (And by that I mean their culture is copypasta from America/Europe).
