Yukihiro Takahashi: S & D

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQ_TQwI38-w

well, that sure looks like a must watch

I found a copy of it but with no subs and I can't locate a .srt file for it, super frustrating. It looks like a pretty light kitchen-farce. However, the director is the same guy that made Hausu, 10 years earlier!

oh, if you haven't watched any other obayashi movies... well, you're in for a treat!

with subtitles here

Interested to see this. Thanks, visiting!

Sites like that drive me up a wall. Tried a few different things to download the video and only something called "Internet Download Manager" worked. Can upload in 720p to whatever sharing site if anyone wants.

(really doesn't seem to be any way to get it legitimately with subtitles)

visiting, thanks for that link! that bottle of wine they're thinking of opening near the beginning, 300K yen...that's 367K yen today, or $2800 US dollars :-o

Can upload in 720p to whatever sharing site if anyone wants

Don't think anyone here will say no.

Absolutely, I found a pretty good rip of it but with no .srt, so I'd love to watch it in any format

what's a good site to send a file that big these days? that's not blocked for many. can do in 9hrs or so.

I like Fromsmash, it has the same 7 day limit but I find it's less flakey than Wetransfer

ok will do thanks

fwiw i think only "server 2" on the pirate site had it in the higher res. Looks nice.

ok here's download link, good til Jan 31 evening

FUCK YEAH

*chants* M-V-P! M-V-P!

*pounding of fists on the table, bedlam rising*

can do in 9hrs or so.

*multiple people begin writing wikipedia entry*

the file works well for me, playback via VLC. thanks maffew12!

Roxor. Will grab it later! Deeply appreciated.

amazing! many thanks

According to japanese wikipedia, YT did this movie in response to RS having starred in Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence.

haha yep c'mon if I were him I'd also be offended if RS was considered the movie star in YMO. no offense obv

anyway wanted to post this track, one of the last things he's on. god I love his "make some noise" sample

Thanks so much, maffew!

Yukihiro tribute for the next hour on NTS channel 1, starting right now!

oh damn whatever's playing now is excellent, anyone know what it is?? do they release tracklists after?

It's fantastic - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uedrxUW8exo

The guy's channel is great btw, well worth checking out.

oh wow a live "Nice Age", never heard this before. Akiko's on it

awww man this is great

I actually know who this DJ is! Towa Tei did a song with them and the video is mesmerizing. YT appears...as the robot

Thanks listening now!

Right now it's "River in the Ocean" by The Beatniks. idk how many ILXors know this record but it's really great, this song in particular is great. and to think it wasn't even on the original version!

(also worth mentioning: this album came out the same year as BGM, Technodelic, and Neuromantic...what an insane year that was for him)

Really enjoyed that! Tracklist normally gets added when the show is archived, will post a link when it goes up

could someone please re-up the poisson d'avril movie?
i always enjoyed the soundtrack and came too late for the link posted a few posts up...

best ymo members with a better solo output: takahashi and hosono

XP - Here y'go - https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/eg69fi25suep02a100xmn/h?dl=0&rlkey=8613qupgg3bl7btlitu8qmzzq

Cheese & wine party w/Yuki (and eng subs) count me in!

A master of French cuisine!

its recently occurred to me how many of his lyrics I absolutely love. I know they're translated by Modell and Barakan but they kinda try to keep the structure of the original which results in a lot of cool and odd phrases. "Feel like I've been through a washing machine", "It doesn't take a genius to know", "I think I'm out on a winning streak", "This must be the ugliest piece of bread I've ever eaten", pretty much everything on "It's All Gonna Work Out", etc.

the strangest of the strangers...secondhand teenagers

Finally watched the movie. it is insane! highly recommended.

The link from poster visiting is fine if you've got an ad blocker

oh yeah, I forgot to report back but watched that basically immediately after grabbing it. a total blast! the kind of thing I'd picture grabbing at the video store and seeing a quote like "a truly delightful romp!" on the cover.

re: movie + the wine and cheese vid - was mr. yt known for being a francophile or something? or maybe everyone was in the 80s...

also recently watched obayashi's the island closest to heaven, he's in that one too, tho briefly. loved it, in any case.

was mr. yt known for being a francophile or something?

well Keiichi Suzuki (the other half of Beatniks and one of his best friends) for sure was. plus there's the whole first album thing.

well, here's where I admit I've never listened to the first YT record...

lol he calls Steve Jansen "Steve-O"

The Alfa YT channel is v underrated, so much great stuff in there.
