What I love the most about this performance (except for the obvious face-melting awesomeness of it all) is that they clearly respect each other's craft despite coming from completely different musical backgrounds.
Fucking sweet! Love Kentaro and also Japanese traditional music, so going toe to toe with the Shamisen is like a reworking of the dueling bangoes. Many thanks for this upload!!
This is why I love the Japanese pop culture... not afraid to turn back the clock and use tradition as inspiration for future sounds. These two killed it!!
The greatest turntablist of all time... Dj Kentaro... This is the most unique collaboration i've ever seen, can believe what my eyes and ears just witnessed...
That has got to be the most amazing thing I have ever seen! Once again real music crosses all borders. This should be one of the YT featured videos, not that BS they promote.
@MyMIXmedia Because both of them are established masters of their field. An equal time is supposed to be had for both of them to show their wares. So Kentaro provided the backing for the first half, and the shamisen becomes and instrument in Kentaro's mix in the 2nd half. Works pretty well, I'd say.
If you liked this, you'll also love Kinoshita's performace with Roby Lakatos. You can find it by searching with "roby lakatos shinichi". It hasn't received much attention, probably partly because it doesn't include the word "kinoshita", but I think it's one of his best performance.
Per usual, Kentaro's turntablism is on point. Fuckin badass how when he starts droppin science, Shinichi hella gets down on his shamisen. Love seein Hip Hop and DnB on a worldwide tip!
after 14 years it is still masterpiece!
one of my all time favourite musical performances

this still is one of the best live preformances ive seen on youtube since 12 years!!
Found that video about 13 years ago. Still one of my favourites ❤
I've lost count of the times I've watched this, and it blows me away every time.
何年前に聞いたか分からんが中盤後半と息の合い方が増して、自分自身物語を聞いているような気持ちになる。
Always here 18 years later!

I love it when two skilled musicians make a completely new song together
