Nihongaku Radio Episode 62: Halfway Behind the Mask

Nihongaku!

Welcome to the episode that lures you in with chill beats and then attacks you with vampiric violins. Yep! We’ve got music from Malice Mizer, a new song from Boris, and some dope beats from Kirinji. And don’t miss electronic music pioneers Yellow Magic Orchestra in the featured artist set.

Have you got a request? Hit me up on Twitter and let me know what you want to hear! And if you’re a fan of the show, please consider leaving a comment on Apple Podcasts. It would really help getting Nihongaku Radio to more listeners. Thanks!

As I mentioned in this episode, I’m starting a new video game-based project called Life Begins at 8-Bit. Catch weekly streams and quarterly documentaries about 40 years of video game history. Don’t miss it!
