Hey guys. I know this might not be something you'd usually listen to, but a few years ago I discovered a pretty great band, named Casiopea. They are a jazz fusion band from Japan. Jazz fusion is a mixture of jazz and modern rock. This band emphasizes electric guitar, keyboards, drums and bass equally, with no vocals.

There's another band called T-Square, and they're pretty similar to Casiopea, but they have a saxaphone/electring wind instrument player.

Haha I've known about these bands for a long time. They're funny.

This guy used to play EWI for T-square in the 80's.

The melody is hilarious.

Haha yeah, the EWI is pretty corny sometimes. Masato Honda is an amazing saxist, though.

The problem with this music is that it's not really genuine. It's just really fucking cheesy.

Although, I used to listen to casiopea a lot because i thought it was hilarious, but a lot of the melodies are really catchy so i ended up liking them.
