  • Third clip from this unknown (to me) show. The shamisen is played with powerful accompanyment from a taiko drummer. Forgive me for not sharing the artists names, I am relatively new to the Japanese language, let alone 漢字 (Kanji). I hope I spelled that right :D

    This is the short version. I highly recommend this album it will blow you away!

    I've drummed for many years and this is the best drummer relationship to melody I've seen. The drums are tuned in exactly to the shamisen. Every note the taiko drummer performs is has meaning. Most drum solos are just noise to me but this is a melodic drummer. Thank You Thank you Thank You for posting!!!!

      As an American, this type of music seems to speak to me. Almost like every song is a story from an aging warrior who is describing his feats and accomplishments on the battlefield before he passes away. It ignites something in my soul, a “flame of humanity”, if you will. I have very much been interested in the teachings of Bushidō and Miyamoto Musashi since I was a child, and not in a weeaboo way either. This music is passionate and inspires one’s sense of dignity and pride to rise to the surface
