OSAKA, Mar 12 (News On Japan) –
Record followers have a brand new mecca in Osaka with the opening of “HMV record shop,” boasting a set of round 50,000 data, together with jazz, soul, rock, and well-known film soundtracks.
The Shinsaibashi retailer is the primary HMV file store within the Kansai area. Surprisingly, the shop was full of younger folks on Sunday (March 10).
“I like Western rock and was wondering if there’s anything good. The sound has depth. It even captures sounds that you can’t pick up on streaming services.”
“There’s also the enjoyment of things like album covers, not just the music itself, which is interesting.”
Even guests from the United States have been current. When requested…
“I heard Mariya Takeuchi’s ‘Plastic Love’ a few years ago. I also like Tatsuro Yamashita, and I’m fond of other artists from that era.”
Due to the rising inbound demand, the costs of some works have been rising. A dwell album by J.A. Caesar, who created music for Shuji Terayama’s performs, is priced at 198,000 yen.
(HMV Record Shop Shinsaibashi Manager, Manabu Nishimura) “Why is it about 200,000 yen? I think it’s because the production volume at that time was quite low, and there is an unusually high demand for this record.”
It seems to be set to turn into a brand new “holy land” for music followers.
