sebbivism 134 Posted October 2, 2010 I don't know if there already has been created a thread about Japanese music on Spotify but if there is one, lock/remove this. Spotify is, to be brief, a music player with streamable music, all music are legally uploaded (record labels uploading the music and earn money when people listen to it). Perfect for people who don't want illegal CD-rips or don't have space on their harddrive, because no music is saved on your harddrive, and is 100% legal. There's one free-account with commercial breaks. The Subscribe-account is 99 SEK/month (~9EUR) commercial-free, all music in 320kbps, able to listen offline and have preview on upcoming albums. Spotify is avaliable in most west-European countries. Spotify can scrobble on Last.fm (One bad thing though is that Japanese titles are tagged in romaji or translated to English.) Download the player and create your account here: http://www.spotify.com Now, to the main thing: Lately a lot of Japanese labels has been uploaded Japanese bands to this music service. I was thinking maybe we could collect all albums/singles we found on Spotify by Japanese artists? Maybe creating a Spotify-section in the Download section?

Guest Posted October 2, 2010 I don't have much to add, other than that spotify FUCKING SUCK!!!! I can't even find 20% of what I listen to there. I know a lot of others complaining about spotify, as well as people being disappointed that their lirbrary is getting smaller. I don't listen to that much unknown bands. Most have released at least an album, usually way more. But finsindg it on spotify?= IMPOSSIBLE!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sebbivism 134 Posted October 2, 2010 I have found A LOT of popular visual kei bands, but that's one problem and that's the horrible tagging, a lot of music is hidden because of the tags are not correct. But the music are there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted October 2, 2010 Yeah! But my problem however is that I listen to a lot of bands that got nothing to do with the VK scene. 98% of the bands never had anything to do with the VK-scene. That's my problem Alsop know people who ar eintro thrash and heavy metal that do not find their bands there Sucks to be them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidium 15 Posted October 2, 2010 spotify:user:teuaelar:playlist:1Twq0a395QzDhUN4W4fzdA I think this has all Japanese artists, or at least nearly all of them from spotify. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have subscribe to that list, i think it's www.ITIKATA.se who created it? (http://www.ikikata.se/japanska-artister-pa-spotify) I also updated the first post here with albums I found/had in my playlist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SUBLIMINAL 52 Posted October 5, 2010 I like Spotify for music that isn't Japanese, but it perpetuates bad scrobbling and the tags are all horrific. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
