My top 10 vintage Japanese tracks

In the past years I have been getting more and more into “world music”, which in general is not such a hip term. I have however seen a change in the popularity of different (let’s say alternative) music from different regions. Obviously the upcoming of the internet in the last 2 decades has also changed a lot in terms of availability. The comeback of vinyl (and represses) has given the “world music” genre the comeback it deserves, at least in my opinion.

The great thing about music is that there is pretty much an endless amount of music available, way more then any person can get to know in their lifetime. In my opinion these different “repress-labels” have opened a world for music-aficionados, since most of the re-releases are even hard to find online.

Since there are way too many good represses coming out from all different regions of the world, I will focus this time on solely japanese releases. These have also been even more hidden due to the fact that the english speaking world can’t even read or type the characters in the japanese language.

So without further ado, my top 10 japanese tracks:

In my upcoming charts I will focus on different regions and/or countries. There is simple way too much good music being rediscovered, repressed, re-released and re-listened.
