Obscurités Japonaises

Introducing the Japanese underground music works from my collection. Most of them were collected during my stay in Japan as a graduate student in the 2000s, but I have been fortunate enough to have the help of Japanese friends after I left Japan, so some of the more recent works may be included. The genres are diverse, and some of the videos are uploaded in genres you may not like... forgive me, it's just my taste!

[Finally unleashed?]

It seems YouTube has been severely penalizing my channel following a sloppy copyright strike about three months ago. Even I, who rarely monitors my channel's performance, found a noticeable drop in views.

However, things have finally started to improve over the past few days. And just in time, the channel is on the verge of hitting 1,500 subscribers.

Thank you for your continued support. Thumbs up to all those who understand what needs to be done to keep culture alive.

[Relationship between excessive monopoly of art and the art's stagnation?]

This channel has received several copyright strikes or warnings. What is interesting is that about 80% of them are from Metal artists or labels (even though there aren't many Metal videos on this channel).

Isn't this an interesting (or even funny) phenomenon, considering the stagnation and aging of Metal music scene in that country?

[Answer to a question submitted to Questionbox]

Yes I have two of their early demo cassettes and in fact I've already made videos. They will be published in the near future!

A few days ago, this channel reached 1000 subscribers. Thank you all my friends for your support!
To celebrate this achievement, I'd like to share one of the most mysterious records from my collection.
Hope you enjoy it, though I suspect most of this channel's subscribers won't be impressed with this style of music... well, it's just a funny little gift!
