While 2013 was the year he released his last original album of music, the curiously titled What's Up (Musea), Motoi Sakuraba continues to actively score videogames for Bandai and Square Enix. The most recent official soundtrack release is the 2021 4-disc boxset Tales of Arise from Bandai Namco Ent.

Also, Motoi's output definitely qualifies as Symphonic Prog. Big smile

I love the Hot! Menu album by Sadistic Mika Band.

I saw them at Newcastle City Hall supporting Roxy Music on the 'Siren' tour back in 1975. Smile

Arigato. That's another one to look forward to. Thumbs Up

I was surprised that Ryuichi Sakamoto and Tomita aren't on Prog Archives though. Confused

Here's a great performance by Sakuraba's expanded line-up (keys, guitar, violin, bass, drums). The really good stuff starts nearly halfway through.

I'm afraid not. Kitaro, Sakamoto & Tomita are the first three Japanese Progressive Electronic artists who came to mind before I started going through the listings. Confused

1995 was a really special time. I became a rabid Japanese prog-and-other fan. Everything from Ars Nova to After Dinner. Seeing Kenso play at Progfest 2000 was incredible (save for the part where they had to end their set so TransAtlantic could set up, since the evening had started later than scheduled).

From Ars Nova to Vermillion Sands, I just finished adding all of the album links, so the wonderful world of Japanese Symphonic Prog is your lobster now. I was going to wait until January before I begin listening to them all, but I may not be able to wait that long, as I'm already in suspenders just at the thought of some of the marvellous music still to come. Thumbs Up

Tread carefully. It can be overwhelming. Japan has no shortage of musicians and bands in whichever genre you can draw from a black velvet hat. From roughly 1995-2005 I spent gobs of dough on Japanese imports. (I did sell off a fair number of them, years later.) 

Some of them, like Teru's Symphonia, don't work for me. Vienna gets a lot better with Unknown, but even that didn't make the hit parade. Gerard's first four albums probably aren't worth bothering with beyond a few songs, but then they begin a run of excellence that's seven albums long, with the entirely instrumental Live in Marseille and both Keyboard/s Triangle offerings ruling the roost (and thus, they haven't been topped).

Listen to everything Kenso has made. One of the best bands ever, anywhere. Clap

Okay, I'll stop there. Smile

^ It's too late for that. I fell down the Japanese rabbit hole long ago, with seemingly no way out, but thanks for all of the great recommendations, especially Kenso. Thumbs Up

Coming up next.....
