Recommendations/Favorites/Requests

Hey All

Not sure if any of you can help me. I was in Japan during October and November. A lot of department store played a song (Male singer) that has it chorus based on Pachelbel's Canon in D. Does anyone know who the artist is and the name of the song? The only thing I found was Depapepe, but the test track that I heard online was music only with no vocals

Any info will be appreciated

The retro selection can be on going as many of the best continue to release and create, but try to limit it on or before 2003 as the debut date.

My selection will be forthcoming.

So, like any type of music?

Hmm, some older bands i like that are still going...
Brahman (album:the middle way)
Maximum the Hormone
Dir en Grey (albums: Gauze, Uroboros)
Miyavi
X-Japan (of course)
SID (i think 2003 was debut year) (album:hikari)
Panic Channel (Shinjinsen)
Porno graffiti (Thumpx is good, but others too...)
An Cafe (i like most, but especially shikisai moment)
the Pillows (Album:wake up, wake up..)
Asian Kung Fu Generation
the Gazette (i like most, especially NIL)
Kra (most, especially Escape)

All I can think of at the moment...
Many of my favorites are more recent bands however...

I'd say SID's best album to date is Sentimental Macchiato. They came together in 2003 - their current lineup was confirmed and published as official in 2004. ^^v I like how Mao actually recruited all the others from other bands. Haha

I can also recommend 12012 (formed in 2003). Their albums DIAMOND, playDOLLS and not obtain+1 are pretty dope. I'm not really that fond of their newer stuff tho.

Vidoll (2002) are pretty dope too. Albums V.I.D ~Very Important Doll~ and Esoteric Romance are AWESOME! Their single EVE is good too, which is their latest output. ^^v

Girugämesh (2003) (anything before the album THE MUSIC) 13's reborn is esp. the SHIT! : D

alice nine. (2004, but their stuff is really good). Anything from their ALPHA album up until now.

Lolita23Q (2004, as well. again. They were epic! Sadly their vocalist Sou left earlier this year (around oct)). Check out everything they ever made, basically.
