His music conjures up a feeling of pure joy, from the upbeat xylophones to the airy breeze provided by the wind instruments. You are guaranteed to have a smile on your face at some point. Also, his music is incredibly catchy which is saying something considering the lyrics are all in Japanese. Often I will find myself humming his songs, wondering just exactly it is that he is saying. Well until I learn Japanese, I suppose I will have to just make do with the mystery of the lyrics. In any case, I highly recommend giving this album a listen.<\/p>\n<p><b>Think: <\/b>Japanese indie folk<br \/>\n<b>REC: <\/b>2, 4, 5, 8<br \/>\n<b>FCC: <\/b>None<b><br \/>\n<b>Label:<\/b> <\/b>Polyvinyl<b><br \/>\n<b>Release Date:<\/b> <\/b>Jan. 22, 2013<\/p>\n<p>Jake Waters reviewed this album on Jan. 31, 2012<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/shugo.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-20096\" alt=\"shugo\" src=\"http:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/shugo.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"345\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/shugo.jpg 400w, https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/shugo-300x259.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Japanese indie folk that will put a smile on your face<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":128,"featured_media":20096,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3230,181],"tags":[1678,1677],"class_list":["post-20062","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-music-rotation","category-rock-rotation","tag-in-focus","tag-shugo-tokumaru"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/shugo.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20062","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/128"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20062"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20062\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20096"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20062"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20062"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20062"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
