These Phenomenal Shamisen Players should be honored w/accustics. Their song Rising makes me want more like this!! I thiink how awesome this song could be if they had their band playing w/them. Can someone get this message to them ? ;-) :-P
@psychobobek well, i have seen shamisen (that is the instrument) players live and also videos, so i know a little about them (a little meaning a veeeery small amount). There are three strings on the instrument, and it has a very long neck, with a base that looks like a kind of traditional drum. The pegs are quite large andtwisting them helps you tune them to the correct pitch. The instrument is plucked with a 'plectrum', which can be made from a range of materials. Ive run out of space -_-
What I would give to have a shamisen...dont know how to play it but i would do it...by any means necesary...one of the most beautiful instruments there is...fuck piano go shamisen :D
i think all the people that hate good music are old people with sight and heargin problems. they get pissed off they can't hear the awesome music because they dropped their hearing aids in their neighbor's urinal again, but still think the song is good so they waddle over to give it a thumbs up. too bad they can't see it and hit the dislike....
The way they play the Shamisen in this song reminds me a lot of the Greek Bazoukya (not sure how to spelll it). The two instruments sound VERY similar.
ok how did i end up from listening to showteck to this? this is one of the most awesomeness mistakes i've bumped into!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
