I think it is just a contrast to Tokyo, here, it is rare to see people younger than late 20s at a chipmusic show.

It's interesting that chipmusic would be left unturned by the youth when there are many examples of Japanese youth culture embracing faux nostalgia. witness the pakuri phenomenon prevalent in 90s Shibuya-Kei, where PIzzicato Five et al would reuse motifs from 60s pop records, released long before they were born. Yasutaka Nakata - who cut his teeth making the same kind of fluffy AM pop on the early Capsule albums - now produces for Perfume, whose brand of danceable synth pop has garnered more than a few comparisons with 80s acts, and has been a huge hit with the kids.

It's written by a music journalist who's pretty smart. Basically argues that pop culture is having a crisis much like an economic one and most ppl who live in that culture are affected by it. It's not a personal thing, it's cultural.

Lazerdavid - there's also a specific part about Japan.

PS. I took the survey and I loved it.

Cool. I am older than 25, but I have done much development on hardware that is older than I am.

Yeah true that. The more interesting hardware is stuff that was before my time like the c64 or atari. And Im 26, so 25 is maybe a bit low.
