Profile

Yamashita is a musician in Japan who is deeply influenced by American pop and rock music in 1960s and continues to create high-quality music. He is also one of the authority figures related to acappella, Doo wop and vocal style. It is also well known that the technique of attaching importance to harmony and composing "one person unaccompanied duet" by means of multiple recordings. For music production requirements are very strict, and because of this production attitude is known as "expert".

In addition to the lead singer and harmony, he basically arranged the guitar and computer rhythms, and even the electronic synthetic instruments and percussion instruments. There were cases where he played the whole piece by himself (the same in Takeuchi's works). Although he was quite modest when interviewed by the magazine, his guitar playing skills, especially his 16 beat rhythm control full of unique sense of time, were highly affirmed by professional guitarists.

But he has * three beliefs about music activities.

1、 He didn't hold concerts in venues above the scale of Japan's Budokan (he had publicly expressed that he doubted the sound effect of large venues such as Japan's Budokan, and that it was quite impolite for the audience to sit in the last row of the venue and enjoy it with binoculars), but his wife Takeuchi participated as an accompanist when he held concerts in the Budokan.

2、 Not on TV. However, although he is not on TV, he often publishes photos in print media.

3、 Don't write books.

At the beginning, he didn't even plan to organize the club. It wasn't until 1991 when the album "artisan" was released that the official club was officially established.

In addition, in order not to destroy the image depicted in the audience's mind when listening to the songs, he never made music videos (except for the live recording of "joy" promotional tapes), which is to prevent abuse by the TV media. People who want to see "moving Yamashita Lang" have to enjoy the concert all the way. However, in recent years, his position began to change, and he also admitted that his previous ideas were biased, and thought about the integration of music and video. After the single "ヘロンンンンンロンンロンンルㄝスススイブイブイイイブイイイイブスㄝ. In the MV picture, he usually appears somewhere in a certain paragraph, but he still doesn't show his face.

The representative songs include "down town", "rideontime", "クスススススイブ", etc. As for providing other services
