Hey MAJ! I really enjoyed your video and the music that Kengo chose is fantastic. 🎶 Could you please consider adding a tracklist with a timestamps in the video description? This not only enhances the viewing experience but also enables features like TH-cam chapter functionality, making it convenient for viewers to navigate through the video and enjoy their favorite tracks. Moreover, adding a tracklist with a timestamps in the video description benefits music enthusiasts who use browser extensions like Web Scrobbler, as it allows them to accurately log and share their listening habits on platforms like lastfm. Thanks for the great content, and looking forward to more amazing videos! 👍
I am currently teaching myself Spanish and I listen to Spanish music often so I can get used to speaking the language in any situation. This is a great way to support your son as a parent. Also, side note, I spent a significant amount of time in South Korea. Because of this, I have become enamored with eastern Asian cultures and language. My wife will often ask me what language is being spoken or written, and I am generally close to 70% right. Each language is incredibly distinct from another, that if you pay attention enough, it would be no different from you hearing German vs Spanish.
@@geoffreyzziwambazza7862 That is awesome! Yes when he was little I often played music in any language I could find plus cartoons would be shown in Spanish, French, Chinese, etc. I only was doing it for fun and the desire for him to feel a familiarity worldwide. He ended up developing an incredible vocabulary at a young age and now as a teenager is thinking of majoring in Linguistics! He is baffled how most people can not distinguish the differences between Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Taiwanese and so forth. I have often had to give him the reality check that most are only exposed to a limited amount of foreign dialect.
I love exploring Japanese music! Thank you for this. To think this music is only 30 odd years separated from WW2; Japan truly evolved with incredible pace post war
Yes Kengo! One of my favourite DJs who can play any genre at any event. Also a wonderful & down-to-earth human-being to be around. Nice to see him on a great channel like MAJ.
One day you can support - in the meantime, comments and likes go a long way. Can also share video links with friends/family - the algorithm listens to that too.
@@wolfgang757 Japan had a lot of independent artists as in lot... Japan wasn't fond of promoting their artists overseas in the past and even now Japan still maintains this isolated mindset but at least Japan is trying to open up
So sad about the copyright issue. I've listened to this several times and really fell in love with the song Anata Dake no mono. Now it's stuck in my mind and I can't find it anywhere. Ughhh. It's true when they say enjoy what's in front of you as if it's your last time.
I found the song at th-cam.com/video/Gj3LK_ooMJs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=yk7ZrXW3quFyC69o . This is a recording of an NHK radio broadcast of a Yumi Arai 1976 concert. “Anata dake no mono” is the second song in the set at 6:52. I don’t know who owns the rights to Ms. Arai’s songs (she or her record company?), the exact circumstances behind her song’s removal from DJ Kengo’s playlist, or if the person posting the concert had the authority to do so. So, I recommend listening to the song (and the rest of the concert) ASAP in case it gets taken down soon. The song is indeed catchy, and the rest of the concert is delightful as well. Hopefully, I come across Ms. Arai’s work in my local record shop: I would gladly purchase it (I already got lucky finding some of Akiko Yano’s work here in the U.S.; it was apparently recently re-issued). ☮️ EDIT: I just waned to add that since her marriage in 1976, she is known as Yumi Matsutoya. She also has a well known nickname: Yūmin.
This was an amazing experience! My TH-cam rabbit hole journey somehow led me here, and I was not disappointed. Kengo, thank you for sharing this history. @MyAnalogJournal, I can't wait to surf your catalog. 😍
I've listened to this many times now. Not only are the songs excellent but there is also a real progression. Every time I feel like I'm taken on a journey.
Wow! I never knew there was Japanese soul music in the 70’s. My first time hearing this and I am in love! Thank you so much for sharing. Love from USA, New York City!🙏💜💜💜
Damn! This is lit!!! I was hoping that someday such video will pop up and I will be able to start discovering more of this ''light mellow'' genre. It's hard to find new japanese music if not living in Japan. けんごさん！紹介してくれてありがとうございます! Cheers guys :D

Excellent set
Thank you!
I hope the plants also enjoyed this.
The oxygen created contains extra soul...

All water has consciousness. I bet they loved it!
I hope you let go of stress and enjoy more than just plants! 😎
Just woke my son up to this who has been studying Japanese...new Sunday morning fave for sure ✨️

Bless him. I'm studying japanese as well. I hope he succeeds with his goals.
That room though….the stereos got them plant growing like crazy.
Come for the music.
Stay for the plants.
My God, even my 11 months baby is dancing! Great sound man, good job! Love from Rome, Italy

Bella Italia!

I'm a simple man. I hear Tatsu, I like the video.
Thanks for the grooooove 💛
Love it
"Lupin the Third, Part II" is one of my favorite old-school animes, and many of the tracks in this set remind me of the series's soundtrack.
What a beautiful space to relax and enjoy lovely music.
This is GOLD. Please, do not dare to stop
im back again.. btw that CARPET is amaaaaazing
to broke to support. but when you're just getting by soul music always hits just right. thank you for sharing this!
One day you can support - in the meantime, comments and likes go a long way. Can also share video links with friends/family - the algorithm listens to that too.
Keep the japanese music coming! 🔥🔥🔥
That first track is just....funk with an attitude! WOW!
Thank you!
"when i say kengo, you say ..."
great mix as always my friend.
You brought back Dancer!! Cannot find this song anywhere, THANK YOU! One of my all time favourite songs
I know, wish it’d be on streaming or iTunes
Man! This setlist made my day. Never heard any of these artists! Thank you, thank you, thank you. Amazing!!!!
Maybe we never heard of them because they are only average bands.
@@wolfgang757 hater
@@wolfgang757 it seems you can't judge a good artist by yourself
i feel bad for you

@@wolfgang757these bands are better than your mainstream western bands. You only have US and UK representing you. Don't get cocky
いい曲ばっかり😭✨最高です❗️💓
Faves:
Hiromi Iwasaki - Campus Girl 07:23
Tatsuro Yamashita - Dancer 09:32
Lily - Reflection 13:30
Yo, Dancer was so smooth! Shame I cannot find it on Apple Music or iTunes…
This is one of my favorite mixes. I can't help it, I keep coming back!
Gardening tutorials are getting better.
Huge city pop fan, glad I got to hear some of these "light mellow" jams. Love this kind of stuff too.
Valeu!
YES Kengo! So happy to vibe to this on a Sunday afternoon buddy☺

What minute is that song??

A true gift to all the beatmakers out there 🙌

That first track sounds like straight out of a Tarantino movie !
Haha it really reminds me of Django
My first thought exactly!
Indeed, I was instantly brought back to Kill Bill vol 1
Yeah it's like a western crossed with some samurai scene.
th-cam.com/video/v8c-ZJ6pTGY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Uu_vS9QmCSBDPPTR 🎉

I'm having deeeeeeeep studio jealousy right now LOL! Great set.
GREAT music really enjoyable
This is so inspiring, I love your vibes and style. Thank you for thid studio session!
This was such an experience! Thank you for posting this
If you had to sum up elegance and style in ONE youtube video, it would probably be this one. Everything is so stylish 😮❤
this is so fresh
It is a testament to the self control of the Japanese nation that their population didn't quintuple despite having the best doing it music ever
who knew what i needed was Light Mellow -- immculate
Stylish! Thanks you!
That is a smooth setup. I wish I was good at plants so I could do this.
Wow! I've been subscribed to My Analog Journal for years and it's amazing to see Kengo on here! amazing setlist.
Wow! I never knew there was Japanese soul music in the 70’s. My first time hearing this and I am in love! Thank you so much for sharing. Love from USA, New York City!🙏💜💜💜
