Looking for traditional-ish chinese or japanese music with a little "spice" on it


Music & Audio


I had a perfect video to show you what I'm looking for, but it got deleted from YouTube (and the title was in japanese characters, so I could never find who was the artist or anything else), so I'll take this song from Naruto as a reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daPo6q4FXDw (this one has more than evident electric guitars, and that's fine, but something less than that is also good).
I'm looking for similar music, does anyone have some names or titles I could look up? If possible, I'd prefer artists or bands' names, so that I may listen to all their works, but nonetheless, if you have a good track to recommend with no info about it, I surely won't skip that.

I have faith that, with the wild variety and number of these boards' users, someone will be able to point me in some nice direction.
Thanks in advance.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Yoshida Brothers - Rising

Someone else - Don't know if they're a group or not, doesn't really say, but there are a couple artists listed, might lead you somewhere.

Wagakki Band - Tengaku


Great, thanks!
I had listened to Yoshida Brothers one or two years ago, I think, but totally forgot about them.
The second one is apparently the same band as the third; they're good and I like them, but the voice makes them sound somewhat like anime openings or jpop.

Did you have those links saved or did you just search them? In the latter case I'm curious about what you entered in the search field, because everything I tried gave me just extremes (actually traditional music or falt-out eastern rock and such).

Anyway, if anyone has more, feel free to bathe me in links.
