Tokyo Drowning

Tokyo’s drowning in Frozen right now. Every version—Japanese, English, remixes with bass that absolutely shouldn’t be there. One Direction scattered underneath like they’re trying to hide.

I looked at what Japanese musicians are actually making and got past all that. Passcode with something genuinely strange. Passport doing their thing. These idol groups with their 48-member variations and engineered precision. None of it makes the charts. If you want to find what’s actually being made in Japan, the charts are useless.

It’s always the same pattern—music made in Japan that people actually love just doesn’t surface. Something foreign always gets amplified louder. Frozen is just the most obvious example at the moment.
