In Tokyo in the early 1990s, an indie band called Flipper's Guitar
was at the forefront of a new wave in Japanese popular music known
as Shibuya-kei. The band's founder, Keigo Oyamada, would go on to
produce, under the name Cornelius, a series of albums that are
among the most innovative in Japanese popular music of the past two
decades. Oyamada's third album under his Cornelius alter-ego,
Fantasma (1997), played a key role in putting J-pop on the world
map for Western music fans, and Oyamada himself is today one of the
most respected figures in the Japanese music industry. This book
tells the story of Fantasma's emergence from the Shibuya-kei scene
and considers the wider impact of Oyamada's work both
internationally and on Japanese popular music today. 33 1/3 Global,
a series related to but independent from 33 1/3, takes the format
of the original series of short, music-based books and brings the
focus to music throughout the world. With initial volumes focusing
on Japanese and Brazilian music, the series will also include
volumes on the popular music of Australia/Oceania, Europe, Africa,
the Middle East, and more.
