Seriously, I was feeling good about my guitar playing after loosely learning an Akira Yamaoka song, this totally destroyed all that confidence -_-! That was hardcore lol
Hmmm... now THERE is a string instrument that looks fun to play. I've always wanted to get one of these to try to teach myself how to play (I've done so with guitar/piano/bass as well, and have gotten very proficient at those instruments, looking for something more challenging like a fretless instrument.)
@ReddmanDGZ Cool! Shamisen is actually a fairly painless fretless instrument (probably as opposed to violin/cello etc.) to learn. It has a resonance called sawari that lets you know sonically when your fingers are in the right spot.
@ReddmanDGZ Cool. you write music? That is awesome. have you posted anything? Of course by asking I am admitting to being too lazy to simply click your channel and find out for myself...which I think I will do as soon as I finish this post. btw the sawari of Shamisen is very similar to harmonics as they resonate on the 5th, maj.3rd etc. but it`s a different experience because it resonates the whole instrument .
@shamisendemon Yes, I use the music I write in my videos to avoid copyright violations. I also post some of the songs I write on my youtube page as well.
I've been composing on piano since I was in my teens and started playing by the age of 6. As for guitar, I picked that up essentially by watching other people play it.
They play so well that their shamisen has electriciy flowing through it and they morph into 4 copies of themselves they turn into a samurai's helmet a bottle of wine a fire extinguisher and they can play while reading dragonball amazing.
@phongbong no theses guys are in japan where floors are always kept very clean and everyone sits on the floor cause the homes are too small for chairs.
@chocolatedonut31 No, no one is white, they are all pale-pinkish-orange ( i don't know what ). You can only be white if you are a ghost or a gay-vampire-wannabe cool but lame as hell-twilight-bullcrap.
Oh someone mistook the Shamisen`s bachi for an ice scraper! Holy Mother of God! They DO look like ice scrapers don`t they? Man Oh Man how come I never noticed this before???
@zoultaker27 It is called Shamisen, a Japanese 3 stringed instrument. Featured here are 2 members of the World Famous Group called Monsters of Shamisen.
YEEEEAAH!!! Youg guys TOTALLY ROCK!!! Suddendly I felt urged to hit with some Shamisens the heads of the producers of Dragonball Evopuke...
Congrats and Respect for your AWESOME skills guys!!! Do more Anime Music PLEASE!! Macross on Shamisen would sound heavenly!! ( Yohko Kanno - Voices ^_^ )
I think I've heard this over 20 times in succession today. All you guys have great tastes in both japanese anime/manga and music. I loved the doraemon theme kevin recorded. I think in a few years I'll take up the Shamisen as well. I've tried er hu (chinese instrument) and it is not easy at all. Hope this one's easier to learn =)
Of course they can play and they're awesome, and btw I'm a DBZ fan too! Being a nerd is something to be proud of! And, if you know what does it mean, I'm an otaku.
This is amazing. You guys are awesome! I play Koto and now I need to see if I can find the score or get the piano tabs and put it into the right notation XD
Kevin Kmetz and Masahiro Nitta just finished touring with Mike Penny. Kevin`s debut CD GOD OF SHAMISEN is out now on EMI Japan. You can buy it in record stores or just look it up online. This is the evolution of the TSugaru Shamisen! Watch out for the future! eeeeeeeeeyahhhh!!!

柔道も相撲も外国人の方がうまくなってしまった。三味線も同じ運命になるのか?
文化は人類が生みだした資産。逆に日本人が外国文化の第一人者になっていることもある。
世界中の人々が優れた文化を共有化する時代になった。日本文化がその中心にあることは喜ぶべきことなのだろうが、目新しさ好きの私達自身が、日本固有の文化に興味を持っていないというのならちょっと寂しい気もする。
