Riuichi Sakamoto

80's Electro from Japan that sounds wayyy ahead of it's time, a direct influence on the Skweee genre & will appeal to glitchy electronic fans & Wonky heads.

    Pre-IDM glitchy IDM. S'narrrrrrrr.

    Also, on a tangental note, I totally dig how often hints and smudges of old school Japanese folk music\Shinto n' Buddhist temple music end up blending into contemporary Japanese electro. Actually every genre of music from Japan. How many metal bands in the USA toss dueling banjos into their shit, amirite?

    I guess blues kinda . . . is in everything BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN C'MON.

    Also Zweo told me not to compliment you anymore.

    Tell Zweo she's just jealous! its not complimentin' haha, i just dig that you're bothering to talk.

    and yeah totally truth, the use of Blues has run through so much American music that to an extent it has become trite, Japan are/have always been more for the experimental side of things, i love how as long as it has 'some' chill element to it, a sector of Asia will LOVE it. haha
