Street Musician in Tokyo

[@mwells219]

I'm pretty sure I bought mushrooms off this guy at a forest trance party.

[@youreyesarebleeding1368]

10 minuet video, and everyone was respectful enough to not block the camera, and avoid walking in front of it - this is one of many reasons why we like Japan.

[@brandominoeffect]

1:43 someone clearly walks in front

[@wheelndeel5472]

Check how many people live in Tokyo, i'd say one person is acceptable :D.

[@Molr026]

@@brandominoeffect she tryed avoiding the camera

[@david.6505]

Sir, please get off your knees.

[@gesosorey]

the woman in black that was there the whole time.,,, kinda love her

[@lajcsivoid3631]

+gesosorey Im pretty sure thats a green dress on her:) she's kinda mesmerized:))

[@FlippyEpic]

Lajcsi Void don't start the blue and black or white and gold dress trend again

[@CozNothingIsForever]

Yeah. That woman was truly enjoying in silence, mesmerized. I bet this made her day.

[@chazly30]

Each limb is doing something different. How many brain hemispheres does this guy have? I can't even rub my stomach and pat my head at the same time lol.

[@TsubasaYukimura]

he's essentially playing 4 instruments at once... and there's a delay for the drums... that's amazing

[@seanpatrick8936]

I watch this video every time I want to think about travelling and Japan. Thx again for the upload

[@anthonycontreras5003]

Dude kills it, I was almost ready to skip the video. By 3 minutes I was captivated. Well done and thanks for sharing.

[@vargero]

[@SlyHikari03]

[@СергейЛебеденко-ц6д]

How he broadcasts his sound? I want to play on the streets too and i have an electric guitar but i dont know how i could broadcast my sound.

[@johnsmith-fb3ty]

that sounded fukin tight

[@alexs.9912]

Does anyone know the song starting 1:40? Or any others from this video? None of it is on spotify and I simply can't believe this to be an impro:D

[@wolfpupx6054]

I think the guy in the Video writes his own music

[@zombielord102]

I love the women in green who stood there watching the whole time

[@selvaroumougame]

Nice performance and good talent.

[@gayanthavitharanage9306]

[@cooktime52]

This is great.

[@cesargolloso7217]

[@xJinko]

holy jesus, someone please tell me where I can find his music. especially the one played in this video

[@littler12345]

sami elu, but im pretty sure he just improv's it on the street

[@wassupppls123]

Wish I could find a channel or playlist dedicated to his music. If it is improv, it's genius! The music has that Asian sound influence and the beat+bells add something like a hip hop beat to it. I fucking love this guy.

[@wassupppls123]

+wassupppls123 forgot to add. Sort of reminds me of something The Shanghai Restoration Project would make.

Cómo se llama este estilo musical? Me gustaría escuchar más de esta música en especial la parte del minuto 0:39 y también la parte del 0:44 hago énfasis en cada una de las partes porque es la que más me gustó y siento que es la esencia de ese tipo de música. Por el momento voy a buscar música instrumental China o algo por el estilo. Por favor si alguien sabe del tema...
