	Music of Japan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Westernized pop music is called kayokyoku, which is said to have begun with "Kachusha no uta" (1914; see 1914 in music).
		Kayokyoku became a major industry, especially after the arrival of superstar Misora Hibari.
		Kayokyoku became associated entirely with traditional Japanese structures, while more Western-style music was called Japanese pops.

	Music in Japan
		The Meiji government, with the intention of modernizing Japanese music, introduced the Western music instruction in schools, and in 1879, Izawa Shuji, a government bureaucrat who had studied in the United States, commissioned songs which were written using a pentatonic melody derived by exclusion of a major fourth and seventh.
		The sad strains of its melodies and the quaver affected by singers are distinctive features of enka, which is considered a subgeme of kayokyoku.
		In the 1970s, under the influence of folk singers such as Bob Dylan, a generation of young musicians appeared who sang songs of their own composition; accompanying themselves on guitar.

		In its early stages, the sound of kayokyoku was more Japanese, but in recent decades, this popular music has taken on increasingly more Western characteristics.
		Although it may be considered to sound the Òmost JapaneseÓ form of music currently performed, enka is actually a rather new genre to the music scene.
		Compared to J-Pop, also a branch of kayokyoku, there is a stronger influence of Japanese sound in enka.

		In 1949, at the tender age of 12, Hibari Misora, the greatest popular singer of the modern era, made her debut.
		Kayokyoku gradually became associated with styles that used traditional scales, like enka, while the more Western-sounding pop became known as Japanese pops.
		This latter form was defined by songs like Sukiyaki and by the many Western-style groups that developed in the 1960s, known as Group Sounds.

	ABOUT
		But since we aim at providing top notch and high quality goods, we are only interested in discs in Mint or Excellent condition.
		As far as musical styles are concerned we focus ourselves mainly on underground sounds, private pressings, psych, free jazz, avant-garde, experimental music, folk, blues, minimal music, field recordings, female vocals, erotic kayokyoku, psychedelic enka shit, acid folk, rudimentary punk, DIY, garage, musique concrete, assorted psychedelia, etc, I guess you know what we're gettin' at.
		We are not interested in CD-R releases (how limited and privately released they may be, the medium is of no interest to us), major label crap and middle of the road mind numbing trash.

		AFTER THE SECOND WORLD WAR - the birth of Kayokyoku
		While Japan is the only eastern country to have so readily absorbed western music, street performances of wind and percussion instruments can be found all over the world. As an 'unmilitarized' street music, chindon is related to Jewish klezmer music, New Orleans brass bands and wind and percussion ensembles from China and south east Asia.

		Japan is the birthplace of karaoke which is enjoyed in bars, at parties, at home and even at the beach.

		There are a number of genres of Japanese classical music, so it upsets me to hear it summed up briefly as "traditional Japanese musical forms."
		I definitely have been influenced by Japanese music since I was a child, but this was mainly music from the 1960s--TV music and Japanese pops (kayokyoku).
		At the time I had no contact with traditional or classical music.

		Frontman Katayose is what's known in Japanese as a kurotogonomi, which roughly translates as "connoisseur." Live, the Great 3 is a hard-rocking power-pop band whose sound is fleshed out by additional musicians.
		Brian Wilson and the High Llamas are the band's most obvious stylistic reference points, but Jimi Hendrix, bluegrass, soul and Japanese kayokyoku pop are other key influences.
		Check out May and December, perhaps their most consistently brilliant album.
