Style recipe for Suno v5

Japanoise

Japanese noise from the 1990s: junk metal, feedback loops, distortion pedals, aggressive and raw in feel. A name-free Suno recipe that reproduces the signature sound without tripping the artist-name filter.

History

Japanoise, a blend of Japanese and noise, names the intense, experimental noise music that came out of Japan from the late 1970s on. Its prehistory goes back to May 8, 1960, when six young musicians including Takehisa Kosugi and Yasunao Tone formed Group Ongaku and taped pieces played on ordinary instruments plus a vacuum cleaner, a radio, an oil drum, a doll and a set of dishes, with the tape speed bent to distort it further. In the late 1970s and early 1980s Merzbow took Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music as a starting point and cut noise loose from guitar feedback, a step often seen as heralding noise as a genre. Other key names include Hijokaidan, Incapacitants, Boredoms, Hanatarash, C.C.C.C., KK Null, Ruins and The Gerogerigegege. Writer Paul Hegarty argued that noise music only really became a genre with the sheer volume of Japanese noise from the 1990s on, and in that decade Sonic Youth and John Zorn introduced many of these performers to American audiences. The label itself sits badly with some of the artists, who say it lumps together musicians who do not share an approach and often do not even know each other.
