I just realized but I think it's a bit sad that nobody's talking about the old japanese music (not only in MH of course). When I'm saying old music, I think of the second part of 20th century. From the group sounds bands in the 60's to the cold gothic rock scene in the 80's (that eventually lead in visual kei), passing by the psychedelic progressive scene of the 70's (Jacks in mind).
Are there people here who are interested in stuff like that?

I think a lot of people would be interested if there was enough to be interested in!
This is a problem you will see even in 90s visual kei and its because these eras and periods were before the internet started. The only information and music available is from those people who were willing to put the time and energy in to make them available, legally or not. Think about it: it's hard to be interested in Japanese surf rock from the 60s if there aren't any bands to sample or people to ask.
I think the best way to fix this is to go ahead and use MH as a platform to advertise these older bands. There aren't many other established places to go, so here is as good as anywhere IMO. And don't be discouraged if you don't get a lot of replies initially because we have a lot of lurkers. But eyes and ears are more important than words and if you stick to it long enough, you might create a few new fans out of us.-
