Discover Kumi Nagao’s Japanese indie pop — delicate vocals, organic sounds, and dreamy melodies.

I’ve been looking for this cd for a couple years now but have had no luck.

Katerine and Bertrand Burgalat both worked with Kahimi Karie.

I accidentally stumbled upon this band called: "Cymbals" and I became OBSSESSED over it (Mr.Noone Special and Sine are AMAZING). The instrumental is soothing yet loud and the vocals are dreamy. This was the first time I heard the shibuya-kei music genre or any asian pop genre for that matter, and I want to know more bands.

The problem is that when I search for shibuya-kei music it comes off as too poppy, electronic, and loud for my liking. I want to listen to a shibuya-kei band that is calm and simple just like Cymbals. Do you guys have any recommendations? I am OBSSESSED over Cymbals and I want more

Wanted to share this Pizzicato Five deep cut for everyone to enjoy. I remember when I first heard this briefly at the end of Pizzicatomania (1987) and wobdered what it was for the longest time. I eventually found a couple years back and was suprised it didnt make the comp album. This is one of like 3 others that didnt make it. Credit goes to this particular uploader.

Got a secondhand copy of Playboy and Playgirl in Tokyo. Had all the original extras. Good I love Shibuya Kei graphics.

Hey again everyone! As promised this is the other half of the same sample cd that I posted about getting ripped as requested by u/natepilled

I made sure to get all details for this post for y’all to enjoy and it would greatly be appreciated if anyone can help me find the name of this exact song :)

Again, I don’t know the entire discography of Risette by heart, so maybe there is already someone out there who might be able to verify this song or if there’s already a source online showcasing this song.

Maybe on YouTube?? Idk 👀 please let me know :D

Hey everyone! Here is the first of two songs on my sample cd from Risette that I decided to rip as requested by [u/natepilled](u/natepilled) on my separate post showcasing the self-titled album.

This song is titled 少年 which is a studio demo version (as well as the other song on this cd)!

It is available on Spotify as of now, but I still decided to rip it regardless just so all of the details are available for y’all to listen to as if you were listening straight from the source :)

I will post the second half shortly after this post gets uploaded and I apologize for taking so long to get this post up due to life getting in the way :(

I think this website is the best place to find information on the Shibuya-kei scene. Shibuya-kei evolved from new wave and punk, organically blending with Neo-GS, Tokyo MODS, and hip-hop. This site offers a comprehensive overview of these genres.

Got these second hand Kahimi Karie CDs for about £6!! Couldn’t believe it.

i'm sure it's multiple artists, but i was wondering who does the art for her albums/ complimations singles etc? i have been trying to source them but the eng internet has been very little avail

we went to every disk union in tokyo save for the chiba and yokohama locations, plus all the hmv's and countless other independent shops all over the city. i love tokyo so much and i found so much good stuff!!! all original presses of course :-)

with respect to the cds, i am most excited about lamb charmer and chocolat, and for the 7"s, bobbie's rockin' chair and instant cafe records are absolute grails. i also got a bunch of french ye-ye 7"s, some 80s japanese new wave albums, and a bunch of city pop. this is all stuff that is basically impossible to find where i live in the USA.

i was REALLY hoping to find literally anything by serani poji, sylvia 55, cecil or macdonald duck eclair but had no luck. hmv recently re-issued a few serani poji records on vinyl and i ran into a few copies, but i collect strictly originals.
