Hey mates, you had reason... the album "SAKURA" by SUSUMU YOKOTA is really a masterpiece. Thanks for your advice.

No it is better than a masterpiece...
Even Richard would have problems pulling off a record all about flowers (which is what Sakura means in Japanese as I am sure you knew)...
Incredible incredible record...
Also recomend you check out "Image 1983-1998" by same guy.. blinding...

"flowers (which is what Sakura means in Japanese as I am sure you knew)... "

I also know kodomotachi means "children"... but what about the other tracktitles??

Yes Kodomo means child and -tachi indicates the plural...
Other titles I will translate you for tomorrow if you really care... Do you?
I am too drunk and tired now - I just got home at 1.15 am Japanese time...

I have to disagree with you there glass_eater- Japenese has no beauty at all when spoken - looks nice when written (in Japanese characters) but probably the most stupid vague and imprecise to express yourself...

Glass_eater - Yeah the temples gardens shrines etc here are really amazing but you are right the quality of life IN Japan is REALLY REALLY SHIT - no space no light not enough trees not enough time off work
Danbrusca dont really understand your comment - you are correct there are a lot of honorifics and heirachical rules about language but Japanese is still fucking ugly I reckon...

the thing i like the most about yokota is that he is releasing lots of music and he doesnt get repetitive, all his albums are very diversed
his last one "the boy and the tree" is wonderful but it took me some time to get into, but now im loving it

when i got sakura it wasnt that great to me, as i listened to it more i started loving it
then when grinning cat came out, i was just shocked of what this guy is capable of, i loved it at once

To answer the question above, I grew up mainly in London - where my family still lives. But I have lived in Japan for the last few years. sorry took me some time to reply - was quite drunk and passed out in front of computer -
alcohol + internet = bad idea
Danbrusca - you are right Japanese can be nice when spoken by a girl with a sexy voice... But a lot of Japanese girls have hightly irritating sqeaky voices and think it is cute to squalk at each other...

hmm, its more ambient, i guess its electronica but not the same as warp stuff
i dont know this, could be that ambient is subgenre of electronica, im really no expert in determing genres
it is electronic music, so i guess its electronica
