Japs generally make good music, especially in the 80s and 90s. Some of my favorites are ambient music, like Motohiko Hamase's Intaglio (https://yewtu.be/watch?v=iwmR72iFGm4), and Reminiscence (https://yewtu.be/watch?v=ZWDGK6PIgqw). Wet Land by Hiroshi Yoshimura is a good one as well: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=Z3m7HXeiHpg But my all-time favorite has to be Takashi Kokubo's Barcelona ～ Gaudi’s Dream ～: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=acJ6qw0k6FA Of course, they didn't just release ambient shit, as good as it is. There's also shit like Tatsuro Yamashita's work, who's apparently the pioneer for city pop, some of which you're probably heard, like Plastic Love: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=9Gj47G2e1Jc Here are two of my favorites of Yamashita's (also just about all I've heard of him, I haven't delved into this genre for months), Marmalade Goodbye (from the album (https://yewtu.be/watch?v=WuLnJmR33Ic), and Only with You (from the album Ray of Hope extra/Joy1.5), the 1986 live version (linked as a direct file since my regular invidious instances would work) As you could imagine, weebshit also had some great music during this time. A relatively new favorite of mine, Roujin Z, is one of them (linked as a direct file for the same reasons) Vidya was no slouch either, with one of my favorites being the first Persona game's tracks: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=8RqBbrlziOo https://yewtu.be/watch?v=vlgcAQr4mDw So
