Juri's solo definitely has to be on this list.

Roji was so good. I knew them finding someone so fast had to be too good to be true. Here's hoping their new music doesn't suffer for it too much.

HYPE!!! And they look fabulous.

Coming out on the 20th? Hell yes. These guys keep getting better.

Interested to hear Verbal, Masato, and KenKen on these tracks. The last Samurai Sessions was really cool so I hope he keeps it going.

Finally got around to listening to some J-music this year, here we go. Last updated: 12-28 (I tried to keep this mostly limited to albums/mini albums but a couple of singles that were worth mentioning made their way in.)

When CDJ emails you "Order #: Item Cancelled"

A re-recording of that entire album needed to happen. Such great songs.

Anyone else here import records/LPs from Japan? Do you notice you need more weight on or needle arm to get them to play without skipping? I don't see much online about this and it's driving me nuts.

Are we talking contemporary releases or older stuff? apanese 70:s & 80:s stuff are usually fine (unless it's scratched or storage warped), but newer stuff may have problems if it's mastered the same as for a CD (for example: extreme pannings and too loud bass can cause skips).
But yeah, just fiddle around a bit with the tonearm weight and see if it gets better. I usually have mine set at +2.5 ~3g or thereabout. You'll notice it if you've set it too high if the sound starts gets distorted. Also, if you have the opportunity to adjust the height of your tonearm, you might want to look into that as well - thicker pressings (180g and above, ie. mostly 00:s and later releases) may require some adjustment.
-
Yeah, they're all newer releases.. and they are pop/dance and downtuned metal so lots of heavy bass for sure. I would have never thought about tonearm height being a factor. I'll see if my table has an adjustment for that, thank you.

The guy with the crown I'm 99% sure is Xavie from revenge my LOST.

I think my main complaint at this point is things still felt rushed, ep4 is probably my standing favorite episode for this season.

Not gonna be my favorite video of theirs, but the song is solid.

Japanese music was my gateway the entire Asian music scene, so without it likely no Korean or Chinese music for me either... At one point prior I was digging into a Spanish language rock and Japanese competed with that (and totally won out) so I might have spent more time in that area without the competition. Otherwise, definitely more American/British/Australian groups would be on my radar.
