Dueling..Shamisen? Very cool. I like how some music will give you chills because it just sounds so good. Enjoy!

I liked Shamisen more, although Shamisen was also pretty good.

Our rabbits are loving listening to this. To be fair, they enjoy most music. I think this is due to the rapid, complex blending of sounds though. Our one bunny usually only rocks out to well rock and the Dragonborn theme from Skyrim. Seeing her listen to this was interesting. And now she's mad at me because the music is over.

Non-Japanese here. It's weird how it sounds so alien and yet still be immensely satisfying to listen to.

No matter how many times I listen these 2 float me off my feet to a plain unseen by the naked eye.

It's... It's like a Japanese Banjo. And I'm okay with that.

Who would have a martial arts death battle to this? I'm honestly curious. I totally would.

I love these guys! Their new Album Hishou is fantabulous - my favorite. As long as these guys lay off the synth and keep up the quick tempo and the trad. melodies, they can't go wrong. They're friggin fantastic.

If you came here from a little boy who brings origami to life with this instrument, welcome.

First of all, the whole video is amazing. I hold these musicians (and their instrument) in the highest of esteem. 2:37 - I get that feeling in the pit of my stomach like I'm rolling over the hill of a rollercoaster, gets me every time! Chills!

If I don't hear this when I watch Kubo and the two strings I'm gonna give the movie one star for not being Japanese enough.
