風神雷神 - Fujin and Raijin
By Kedbreak136 on March 29, 2020 4:38 amThis is cherry blossom season in Japan and traditionally an opportunity to get out in the parks with a lot of people and get blind drunk under the trees. Of course this is not an option this year. On top of that, the weather has decided to go banana. Crazy winds on Friday, screaming across the bamboo trees, heatwave on Saturday and snow storm on Sunday.
In honor to all this craziness, I have attempted to celebrate Fujin and Raijin, respectively gods of the Wind and of the Thunder.
This is a mix of sliced taiko samples, a shamisen soundfont and some recordings I got out in the wild on my phone.
As the Noh guys says, "yooooohooooo".

The vocals and rain are a very nice touch.
Surprising sounds to hear on weekly beats. Very cool, and a welcome celebration! I like the drums and can picture a group of drummers playing.
素晴らしいよ！I'm sure Fujin and Raijin will be pleased! Very nice song, sorry about hanami not panning out this year :<
Perfectly appropriate!

100% certified Yokohama rain.

Thank you guys! We'll make sure to enjoy hanami twice as much next time around!
Awesome track! Love the energy in this.
Great to hear something different hear and I'm a fan of Japan and even Fujin and Raijin. The koto/taiko combo is solid. I actually play in a death metal band with Japanese influences and we have a song Fujin and Raijin. Two separate songs though. Here's the EP those 2 songs are on. 
You can still get blind drunk, just in the safety of your own home.
Great work, sounds authentic.
I love that this played right after some techno stuff and right before some really chill bedroom producer sounding stuff. Such an exciting sound, and so unique on WB rn!
