Random J-Music Thoughts & Questions
« on: July 04, 2007, 10:39:47 AM »
Yeah, we needed one of these for the "lesser" known artists.

BOYSTYLE disbanded
http://www.amuse.co.jp/artist/boystyle/profile.html

Fans saw it coming. Good luck to Eri and her acting career!

Ikegami Kei / 池上ケイ

Ikegami's voice reminds me of Nacchi & NAZE? is my favorite song of the day XD
Kei's 2 latest singles (Grow, NAZE?) http://www.sendspace.com/file/0rniry

Um, I'm not sure if it's the right thread and all >_>; Obscure thread is not really for pop artists, isn't it?

Can anyone help me identify this girl? I don't even know if she's a) Japanese and b) a singer, but I didn't know where else to ask ...

Random last.fm avatar, but she's cute as hell and caught my attention, so any help would be appreciated ^^

Is there any English info anywhere about Sakura Seira? (this girl)

I've gotten interested in her, but all I see that can give me info is the Japanese wiki.

Is there a ranking for japanese music companies? 

I remember something like that was posted way back somewhere on H!P Questions, the rankings of the music entertainment companies, with UFA, Avex, Sony Entertainment Japan, Johnny's Jimusho...  but I think that was back in 2006 or something...

With ThePPN being down for quite a time, some J-music fans started with something similar, still in progress:

However! I heard that there's a good chance that ThePPN will return very soon!

^the video isn't available anymore.. but the song might have been from AKB48? Since Shinoda Mariko is a member of that group.

http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?board=88.0

It would help a LOT if the video were still available somewhere  :P

Thanks for helping  :). I did manage to find the name of the song in the OPV before it was taken down.
The name of the song is called Cherry by Spitz. Quite a nice song.  :twothumbs

I love mash-ups so much.  :wub:

http://kirarinsnow.vox.com/library/audio/6a00fad697419c00040123dde02135860d.html

Polyphonic Experiment in D
Berryz Koubou × Buono! × Watarirouka Hashiritai × Idoling!!!
mixed by DJ Kirarin Snow

Ahahaha. This just proves how stupid it is to quibble over which girl group is better, because they're all the SAME.  :lol: Got to say though, Rival and the Idolling!!! song were the standouts. But I loved how everything layered. Idolling!!! and AKB48 are really good at using that sort of harmonious choral sound, and I'm a sucker for it.

does anyone have any site suggestions that are along the lines of allkpop but for jpop instead?

i like how allkpop mentions commercials, ads, activities, guest appearances, etc for singers.
also how there's news on rookie singers and teasers for everything as well.
