Kashiwa Daisuke
homepage / myspace

Kashiwa Daisuke is a solo artist creating ambient electronica music (closest comparison I can make is WEG) from Fukuoka, Japan.

downloads:

Kashiwa Daisuke - Program Music I (2nd album) (2007.08.24)

...

I'm speechless. If I were to revise my best of 2007 lists, this album might just take the cake and I've listened through it just once. Wow. Fucking beautiful, ingenious stuff.

A lot of awesome bands in this thread.

I'm new around here and I wanted to share a couple bands I've been digging recently.

First is Nine Days Wonder and their 2nd album With Euphoria. Kind of a mix of post-hardcore and dance punk I guess you could say.

With Euphoria

The second band is Perfect Piano Lesson, which I've been liking a lot recently. This is their debut album Modernize, which was released in 2006.

I was also wondering if anyone could re-upload those G-Ampere albums, because I've been looking for their stuff for a while now.

I had heard of both Kashiwa Daisuke and Nine days Wonder some time back. . . But had completely forgotten about them both. Thanks a ton you guys.

In case anyone wanted to know.

PANICSMILE
- I cant describe it... they're like Zazen Boys, but very different.. thier sound is a mixture of a lot of things all over the place.

You probably already figured this out, but Panicsmile are actually a pretty big influence on the Zazen Boys. http://www.clearandrefreshing.jp/index.php?itemid=307

^lol good thing you didnt use "emo pop classical" as a description again

Stryfe · « **Reply #134 on:** January 17, 2008, 02:09:00 PM »

Band myspace pages sometimes have pretty wacked out genres.

Anyway, great stuff. Hope they come up with a full studio album soon. (And get signed, if they already haven't)

I'm really pleased that I came across this thread! I'm positive I have a bunch of bands to contribute, but it'll have to hold off until I get back to my own computer.

dt. (mixture)

Sorry to request yet another album but I was wondering if anyone would be so kind as to post any of dt.'s work? I'm really into the song "kizuna" and it's virtually not on the internet other than a video on youtube...sorry again, I realize this isn't a request themed thread...
