Had an encounter with a most unpleasant human. Went home & slipped into my garden to commune with things growing and surrounding wildlife to cleanse my being. CZcams music is always playing in my home and even though I started with Hiroshi Yoshimura and autoplay is off and this never should have happened, magical and new to me Takashi Kokubo was playing when I came indoors. So soothing and ethereal and healing and perfect. Thank you..
I ❤️ your music. My son lives in Japan and married a Japanese girl he met at university. I am going over this Autumn 2021 and I cannot wait! They want me to move there... and I just might.
There’s so much music I was never even aware of until I found your channel. A whole different universe of things to explore and contemplate, it’s never ending! Thanks for your uploads.
takashi kokubo has been one of the best finds ive ever made on youtube related video adventures. what a singular musician. absolutely gorgeous and emotive.
Wow... I'm laying here feeling so bizarre being a human being, watching humans being someone else on TV. Albeit this too, is manmade, it somehow transcends reality, I'm getting a strong fantasy aura, as if I discovered a hidden land of fairies, gnomes.... feels sacred/delicate... I'm very grateful for this...
I found this randomly on CZcams and Solar Wind has become one of my all time favorite pieces of music.... It is a perfect expression of the vicissitudes of life-- the way it plays back and forth from bright modes to pensive to brooding and back. Often brings me to tears (while I'm working no less-- have to either stop working or shut it off and play some K-pop!)
I do love the gentle sounds of Takashi's music. Helps to let go of the convergences and excaerbation of energies so that I can enjoy the space once again.
OMG ty for another Kokubo masterpiece from the 90's! Very majestic this one but it still has that classic Kokubo sound that he was using at the time, I still imagine being in Zelda or some 90's retro game when I listen. So glad we have you to upload something most of us would have never heard otherwise, Thanks! So relaxing and otherworldly, we love this!
Evocative of old early 90's Westwood adventure games, a bit, and channels the same peaceful natural vibes as the Stardew Valley OST. For peaceful astral exploration times, make it Kokubo times
Omg...This is the most pure ambient “music” I’ve heard....I thought “lightwaves of the universe was good”, but this is changing my whole perspective on the genre
Explorar estas montañas sónicas será una experiencia grata. Me siento afortunado de poder vivir en este momento y tener la capacidad de llevar a cabo tal suceso. Su topografía acústica, su imagen audio visual; todo lo que compone esta cordillera de viento solar y vibraciones sanadoras... es impresionante Me pregunto como un paisajes tan terrenal y orgánico ha adoptado esta forma sonora; es como... si no existiese en el plano terrenal, pero si en uno físico Uno que no pertenece a la Geografía, pero si a la acústica topográfica. Espero informar pronto sobre mis hallazgos y experiencias.
Thank you so much for this album! I absolutely love Takashi Kokubo, especially the Oasis of The Wind - Forest of Ion album! I super appreciate all the amazing albums that you upload!
Really though! I didn't think it could get better than Barcelona - Gaudi's Dream, but this release is just as good. Definitely going to give it some deeper listening when I go on a hike this weekend. I like having Takashi or Hiroshi or whoever playing on my headphones just quiet enough to hear the bird song in the background of the music. In my opinion, some of the best music helps us to tune in the natural music that is happening all the time around us in the elements and beyond.
So apropos now, may we heal any debris from cracking attempts with the Solar Winds of Aurora, in this grand conjoining time of ordered expansion, and expansion of order, as the spark of the redeemer is reborn and matures in its utter vulnerability and Interdependence within each soul! We are Willing to take Me on!
Me too. God I love seeing comments like these as I grew up with FFX in the 2000's and I've just recently discovered Takashi Kokubo's music and boy is it reminiscent of FFX's world and soundtrack.
神秘 (shinpi) does not denote the kind of mundane human mysteries which are full of deception and this-worldy intrigue. Rather--as 神 (shin/kami) [gods/God, mind, soul] would suggest--the term refers to that sacred knowledge which is beyond the scope of human comprehension. Spinoza said: "The human mind in so far as it knows itself and its body under the species of eternity, thus far necessarily has knowledge of God, and knows that it exists in God and is conceived through God" (Ethics Part V Prop. XXX).
@@dopaminecloud As a studier of Japanese, he is largely correct. There are sooo many words in Japanese that simply get translated to mean "mysterious", etc, but this particular word implies mysteries of the occult such as religious, supernatural, and other similar kinds of mysteries.

It's nice have a place to ease the mind unfortunately they are to many unpleasant people now a,days
I love both Yoshimura and Takashi!
bro you are too good to us
I ❤️ your music.
My son lives in Japan and married a Japanese girl he met at university. I am going over this Autumn 2021 and I cannot wait! They want me to move there... and I just might.
If I had the opportunity I'd move to Japan, especially since your son is part of their culture & knows the ropes!
Needed something good to listen to as I’m eating a quesadilla rn…
And here we are
There’s so much music I was never even aware of until I found your channel.
A whole different universe of things to explore and contemplate, it’s never ending!
Thanks for your uploads.
Eric Overstrom the same for me, CZcams recommended is a strange creature but I’m really grateful that it brought me down this road
Christopher Gonzalez Certainly, it has led us to a wonderful source of serenity and clarity.
takashi kokubo has been one of the best finds ive ever made on youtube related video adventures. what a singular musician. absolutely gorgeous and emotive.
Beginning to think the universe is speaking to me through these youtube playlists.
bless this channel forever
Thank You Takashi-San. You've created music which brings joy to many many people.
This has been with me though countless hours of coding. Imagining pixelated endless summer beaches… 😵💫🏝
These Takashi Kokubo uploads put me in a certain kind of mood
I love everything kokubo does!!!! 🇯🇵⛩🎐🍃️🎎🍶🏣🈲🈯

Perfect post-tornado watch music.
We were waiting for a thunderstorm which didn’t arrive but yes I can see how it is post dramatic weather music

ever since discovering this 6 months ago it's become my go-to sleep music every night 💙 many many thanks!!
My happy place is this kind of music
music like this is too pure for our mortal realm
Omg...This is the most pure ambient “music” I’ve heard....I thought “lightwaves of the universe was good”, but this is changing my whole perspective on the genre
Thanks to you I discovered Takashi Kokobu and I listen to it every morning when I do yoga 🙏 bless
I found this album on soulseek and downloaded it just cause of the name. I didn't know what it was. so grateful!
This is almost like ASMR in music form. So relaxing.
Imagine you discover this in 1992.
Fantastic, ... so harmonizing
I love the little hints of dissonance in White Ambient.
First track is like being taken to another world right out of my childhood daydreams. Lovely🌌
Lovely
How did I even come across this channel. It's been on autoplay all day at work
MY MAN!!!
Got the new Flying Lotus album last Friday and now this!! It's been a good month for music!
"should be asleep" - no name could have been better chosen for this channel.
right, need to wake up in 4 hrs to school, but the music says its ok
Beautiful. Reminds me of a stillness I'd like to know.

This is my favourite ambient music so far thank you
Thank you !! So hard to find these! I'd love to collect them all

Thankyou so much for uploading, I cant get enough of this guys stuff.
Kokubo is the definition of "vibe" music, among other things.
Please keep doing this you are making my weeks !!
THis Is My FAvourite CZcams CHannel for ever !!!!!!!!!
Something about this makes me think back to the soundtrack to FFX.

Much appreciated. I have really enjoyed all the works by Takashi Kokubo that you have uploaded. I hope we can hear the full set in the future.

Does somebody have a copy of forest of ion? Shit got taken off recently on copyright grounds.
it's back up again i think. source: listened to it yesterday
roland d50 vibes all over dis thing.
the first track reminds me of minecraft music
This sounds like a negative harmony version of the Forest of Ion album!!! Can anyone explain what's happening in this one?
Commercials 😢
Do these albums exist in physical form? Can you buy them?
Why some videos are blocked in my country?
