Okinawan Sound To A Modern Beat...

Song: Nishikaji


Now this is some really super awesomely goooooooooood music!!!

I just love how よなは徹 plays that sanshin mixing in that ウチナンチュ sound and singing into a very danceable modern beat. And, you even see that short clip of all those old people dancing the kachashi to this modern style song - Awesome!!! Listening to this, I just know that this music came from where I came from...

Back back back in my dad's dad days...before I was even born...he told me nights at the Okinawan camp in Kunia would be spent with a drink and my ジジ playing the sanshin singing ウチナンチュ songs...and when I see those people dancing...it always reminds me of him...
