Japan's Rock Goddess Shiina Ringo & Tokyo Jihen - Complete Collection Anonymous
One of the Japanese music scene’s most interesting and consistently creative artists is Ringo Shena, a hard-rocking singer-songwriter who has carved out a unique niche for herself ever since her debut in 1998.

Besides Japanese, she sings in English, German, French and Portuguese. And she tackles the foreign-language songs with assurance and aplomb. On her scorching version of the Beatles song "Yer Blues", for example, Shiina is in full screaming banshee mode, singing against a bone-crushingly heavy backing track.

In 2004, Shiina put her solo career on hold and formed a band called Tokyo Jihen, or Tokyo Incidents.

This torrent contains all singles, albums, and b-side outakes from her solo years and recent works from her band-endeavor Tokyo Jihen.

OP here. when u're done downloading this, look for the folder "Shiina Ringo b-sides & live tracks". there is a song called "Can't take my eye off you" - that song made me came bigtime.

>>150632

actually a lot of her song lyrics have sexual undertones, so i would find those racy MV's too surprising.
>> Anonymous
Codec and bitrate ?

I assume 2 above meant wouldnt find it surprising.

And the undertones make her better because she isnt a carbon copy robot with no depth :).

I've got the Soil and Pimp session/shiina video of karisome otome from Our Music in HD if anyone wants!

The torrent's missing a few things.

1. Ichijuku no Hana
2. Karisome Otome (DEATH JAZZ ver)
3. Kono Yo No Kagiri

The first one is a tough-to-find track from the vinyl version of "Karuki Zamen Kuri no Hana", the second one is a track that was released exclusively on iTunes Japan, and the third one is her most recent single. Other than these three, it looks complete to me.

Here's a link with the missing stuff:http://www.sendspace.com/file/e7lzvt

Her singing style has changed over the years at times...but it is just weird to you most likely because she isnt a loli sounding jpop girl. While I think in general japanese popular music is more creative and has better (studio?) musicians she certainly stands out. And tokyo jihen is just amazing...a great mix of different
styles of REAL music. The GOOD stuff. Like someone said it is fine if you don't like her voice. But you can't troll this just because you lack good taste and appreciation for whatever doesn't sound as normal and conventional to your ears (not that shinna or tj... that niche of a taste...but whatever).

And your picture is NOT relevant!

Looks like it is just one of the demos. The 3rd one? Sorry, didn't look into that beforehand. Also the parts are pieces of a 600mb ish archive.

The only way to make this the Ultimate Collection is if we somehow obtain the rest of her demos. Then, and only then, will this anonymous be satisfied.

The previously posted link about her demos (http://salikon.net/shiina/demos/info.php) says that some of them are on Soulseek (http://www.slsknet.org/). I would get on there and download them, but I have a Macbook. Maybe if some Windows user(s) would be kind enough to hunt those down, we could get her demos together and torrented for massive fucking winrar. Epic, anyone?

Bump.

Also, I just found this video on youtube, and according to the Japanese wikipedia entry for "???????????????" (with some help from Google translator), it's a pretty rare VHS tape that was sent to people who bought/ordered her first album or first single or something. I had a hard time figuring out exactly what the page said, but I think it's something along that line. The picture is from a Yahoo Japan auction of the tape (I think).

Not quite sure why I'm posting this, just figured maybe some fellow Ringo fans would find it interesting and entertaining. Also, if anybody has the original video, upload it please! (I suppose that's my real reason for posting this...)

I actually like STEM better, personally. The same kind of thing happened with Yokushitsu (from Shousou Strip) and La Salle de Bain (from Ringo No Uta). La Salle de Bain is one of my favorite songs of hers.

Good song for starters? There is none (her musical styles are so varied that no one song could ever completely encompass her sound)...but if you must pick one specific thing to download, go for her album "Shousou Strip". It's probably the closest thing to a middle ground, musically, that she's released.

I agree..."rock goddess" hasn't been an appropriate name for her for a long time (really since the release of her cover collection, Utaite Myori). A lot of Ringo fans talk about how they want her to go back to her rock stage, but I'm happy with the direction she's taking. She's showing a lot more maturity and versatility than if she had just stuck with the sound of her original album...not that I don't like her first album, but I'm glad she's progressing as an artist.

>> Anonymous
>>152197
Yeah, her voice isn't perfect (and in some live performances, I'll admit, it's awful...and I'm a pretty big fan...), but I like it anyway. It's more about her style and creativity than her skill as a musician for me (although she is a VERY skilled musician...you just don't see her play piano much anymore...).

Also, what did you listen to from the torrent? Cause her earlier stuff is MUCH different from her later stuff. I'm not sure how you got "standard mid late 1980s riffs", unless you only listened to her first album and didn't pay a lot of attention...so give "Karuki Zamen Kuri no Hana" a chance if you're looking for something less rock-ish (and with slightly better vocals, although her voice is going to annoy you just as much on later recordings if you didn't like it on earlier ones). Or just give it up now...she's definitely not for everybody (but PLEASE, if you have the slightest interest in her, give her another chance...it's worth it).

One more thing...if you listened to Tokyo Jihen and heard "standard mid late 1980s riffs", you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Be this the case, just give up on listening to music forever.
>> Anonymous
I think her voice is fantastic, actually, and better off for being distinctive rather than conventionally pretty. but I like a lot of odd-voiced singers that other people bitch about.
>> Anonymous
Another thing...music even based off of simple guitar riffs or standard progressions doesn't make it inherently BAD. I agree that a lot of music is crap that is done again and again...but to a degree progressions and "riffs" have been done before. All licks are sort of borrowed. It is how you use them with incorporation. Her early stuff is simple to some degree but it is what she does with it. I'm very much into jazz and less "simple" styles of music but i appreciate anything done well. Music can be simple and "generic" but have a new twist to it and be remade. I'll have to agree that shiina has a lot of creativity in warping new styles or doing some interesting things musically and vocally. And, ya, she doesn't always sing the best live but she CAN sing...
