Yamanashi 3,825 Posted June 16, 2020 Gotta put in a shout out to Terem, Russian crossover group. Unfortunately, Mikhail Dzudze, "the Paul McCartney of the double bass balalaika" has retired from the group. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In most browsers, they are embedded automatically. In the one I mainly use, at first they are not. I have to edit my post, go to the end of a link and press return: then the video mostly gets embedded, except in the first post of a thread. For that I have to use a different post/browser where it embeds, cut and paste. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Athenayama 1,021 Posted June 30, 2020 (edited) Ok this is not really the kind of music displayed here so far and I apologize for being "off topic" in an "off topic" thread but this voice .... My God this voice... She's definitely not known enough in my opinion, hence this post. Edited June 30, 2020 by Athenayama Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, as a former Aomori resident, with ties to Hirosaki, I'm proud of these guys! I wish I'd know about them while I was there. Didn't discover them until I returned to Canada.

RabidJohn 1,757 Posted July 15, 2020 Only just found this thread. So much to watch and listen to! Thank you @Kotoroiwa for exposing me to Hirosaki, Aomori! I've posted this elsewhere on the forum previously, but just in case you missed it: Everything on The Hu's YT channel is well worth a listen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kotoroiwa 64 Posted July 15, 2020 Thanks to everyone offering links. Some of those have already been familiar to me, but most not. Some music has certainly not been anything I would've found on my own or even by chance. Hopefully others feel to have also been exposed to new music, too. Now, let's see… If I were given a chance to bring with me onto a desert island music from just one artist or band, it would be CMX. Much of their allure is derived from the lyrics written by their vocalist / bassist A. W. Yrjänä. They are complex, even to the point of an end in itself. No wonder they divide opinions. Enough talking. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
