A BIG ASIAN MUSIC POST

[broom_rider]

I know that probably it 'll have no effect. It's just... I feel like I ought to make this post. You see, I had a conversation via Skype this morning with a f-lister, and he said, that he absolutely can't say Japanese from Chinese, not mentioning Korean - it all look and sound Greekthe same to him. Naturally, I could wrote a mile-long post abut differences between the cultures.... But I won't.

here we go, pretty much at random:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Небольшой ликбез для моего друга, который нынче утром меня премного озадачил, сообщив, что он не может отличить японца от китайца, не говоря уж о корейцах... то же самое относится к культуре этих наций. Конечно, я могла бы накатать километровый пост по теме, но не буду.

вобщем, вот [почти] случйная подборка...



Tang Dynasty

Jay Chou

Vodka Rain

Pia

Victor Tsoi+"Kino"

I think I like the Japanese music the best.

I like j-rock better, too. Though I really like Vodka Rain, the first the korean group here...

Yes, Vodka Rain is cool.

It reminded me of a time in the 90s when I had a Korean rock/pop cd. I can't find it now!

I see a lot of korean music on the asian rock sites/communities, and though I prefer j-rock, Vodka Rain captured my attention; they are sweet guys. Sasha likes them, too.
If you want, I'll burn a couple of cds of this group for you - basically, that's all their discography:)
