Hello guys!
I'm Sayu from SAYULOG.
-
This time I'll present the "Sound Tripping Taipei" to you.
-
Taiwan has always been filled with wonderful music.
-
This time, we will explore the history and episodes of Taiwanese music while visiting spots that are closely related to it.
-
That is the singer, "Wen Hsia".
-
"Wen Hsia"?
-
That's right.
-
He's amazing.
-
He likes Japanese melody lines
-
because he learned songs in Japan.
-
He added Chinese lyrics to Japanese songs and made them songs for Taiwan.
-
There are many Taiwanese versions of Japanese songs.
-
The same melody.
Different lyrics with the same melody?
-
That's right.
-
Do you have a lot of Enka?
Yeah.
-
There aren't many new songs.
-
Because my mom doesn't know.
-
She won't sell anything that she doesn't know about.
-
Oh really!?
-
All the things you sell are recommended by owner,
your mom, right?
-
That's right~!
-
My gyoza dumpling is popular in my neighborhood and they say "Your gyoza is delicious!"
-
A person said "If you sell gyoza, I'd come to buy it!", and then I started selling it.
-
Everyone said "delicious", and there were more and more customers, so I finally added it to the menu.
-
The skin is soft and chewy and tasty.
-
The inside is so full of meat! Look!
-
It's really delicious!
-
It's nice and spicy!
-
Our shop's name is "Record shop without new songs".
-
That's why we don't have new songs.
-
We have works that up to around 2000.
-
Most of them are from Taiwan. We also have Western and Asian works.
-
These works are almost the same generation as me.
-
Speaking of Taiwanese popular music,
-
the songs everyone was listening to in the 1970s-1990s (Republic of China 50-70s).
-
Customers are from new employees who just graduated to people who are in the '40s to '50s
-
who have a family or have children.
-
The songs in their youth.
-
Namie Amuro! (Japanese famous singer)
-
"SWEET 19 BLUES"!
-
My youth!!
-
Cassette tape! It's nostalgic.
-
Stefanie Sun.
-
Oh yeah! It's Stephanie Sun!
-
This year is the 20th anniversary of her debut.
-
Oh really!?
-
Wow, she is great!
-
I highly recommend this Diva in the '70s.
-
Louise Tsuei.
-
Her performances were very sexy and songs were lively, and the pace was often fast.
-
This is her work when I was young.
-
She's beautiful!
-
The rock by a female!
-
Her name is Julie Sue.
-
Since she came out, many female artists have sung rock.
-
She led the new rock style.
-
Female rock in the 1980s...
-
Is it the same generation as "Rebecca"?
(Japanese Female Rock Band)
-
Yes, almost the same. Right?
-
(Costume is) black! black! black! black!
-
Wow, it's super cool!
-
That's right, she's a super cool singer.
-
This singer has been 33 years since his debut, and
-
his CD is still selling well every week at this shop.
-
...Every week!?
Every week, somebody comes to buy them!
-
We have so many of his works here, and everybody buys different ones.
-
He is Dave Wang Chieh.
-
This is his first album, and after that, he had released one album half a year.
-
All of them were sold very well.
-
That's amazing.
Each one is a wonderful song.
-
In Taiwan, he's also called "Prodigal son".
-
I don't know how can I say,
-
it's like "he's a lonely, provocative and the symbol of a changing world".
-
Maybe I got it, it's like Yutaka Ozaki?
-
Ah! It might be like that!
-
Taiwanese in the 1990s listened to Japanese songs as they were.
-
Those were overwhelmingly popular.
-
The days of Tetsuya Komuro were the hottest.
-
Of course, not only the Komuro-family but also the Dreams Come True is very famous in Taiwan!
-
I went to their concert!
Really!?
-
I found it!
-
9m88
-
It's really great.
-
Her voice is deep, that's why I really like him.
-
9m88
-
I like their MVs.
-
Super cute.
-
I really love this one!
-
Native singer!
-
This album is awesome.
-
I highly recommend this "Goat".
-
A young hip-hop band.
-
And then, "It's Your Fault".
-
I wonder if it's a little bit closer to R&B.
*Live video available in the second half of the video
-
You can listen to it while feeling calm.
-
The one that has been selling well these days is Leo Wang.
-
Leo Wang who won the gold song award in 2019?
-
It's super cool! "the Chicken lunchbox".
-
The most recommended in this year at our shop is Enno Cheng.
-
This is her first album.
-
It's a very old work.
-
Is it a reprint?
-
Yes.
-
This year's super recommended work in our shop!
Recommended by WWR (White Wabbit Records)!
-
I recommend you.
-
This one! "Sweet 2020"
-
Dj Didilong.
-
He also makes MV, sounds, and produces.
-
I'm sure he used to provide music to other artists before.
-
Oh, I see.
-
And, Limi.
-
This jacket designed by a Taiwanese designer.
-
Limi, cute!
-
Wow! Here is their sign!
We have many CDs signed by artists.
-
The CD design in Taiwan is really cute.
-
So?
-
Is it something different?
Like that one,
-
I feel it's soft that the Taiwanese sense of using color.
-
What interesting in Taiwan is this one!
-
Is it divided by Bopomofo (a code unique to Taiwan)?
-
Bopomofo... Dutu... Nulu...
-
Each staff has different recommendations, so it might be good to ask!
-
And actually, it's the fastest to ask staff what you want to find.
-
That's right!
-
Good.
-
This Earl Gray Cake is delicious.
-
Delicious!
-
(Fruit jam) I heard it's handmade.
-
It's very fruity and not too sweet.
-
And it's very nice.
-
