Been tied up for the last few months, so I been quick updates on my facebook instead of here, my apologies.
Anyways, I been tapped to help compose the new edition of the book [National Anthems of the World] by M. J. Bristow. One of the countries I have been working on was, of course, Japan. I been working extensively on trying to make the music, lyrics and other information about [Kimi ga Yo] (君が代) correct. Believe it or not, there was major screw ups even with the lyrics. Anyways, a new version should be out eventually and you can see the work that myself, Bristow and others put in this new volume.

Cheers for the kind message you left on my site; a pleasant way to start the day. Interested to know what got you hooked on Japanese culture; won't find many 'Japanophiles' here in China....
Started with the animation, then I took language courses. Having friends who studied the same thing also helped a lot.
