Their early albums were marked by a distinct world influence, with works such as Chi No Hibiki (Echoes of the Earth Sing East Europe) displaying Bulgarian and other eastern European singing styles and Africa Genjoh (The African Vision Singing) featuring African stylised chanting. Osore-zan - Dounokenbai, furthermore, offered a more psychedelic flavor with Krautrock influences and the introduction of guitar work.
Their breakthrough however came in the 1980s. MIDI digital synthesizers could not handle the tuning systems of traditional gamelan music, so the group had to start from scratch, teaching themselves how to program in order to modify their equipment. The album that followed, Ecophony Rinne (1986) was a new direction for the group, the first time they incorporated computer generated sounds into their work. It also marked the start of what's now known as the "trilogy". The success of this album brought them to the attention of Katsuhiro Otomo, who commissioned them to create what would become their most well-known work, the soundtrack of Akira. Ecophony Gaia, released in 1990, is the third album of the "trilogy" - Ecophony Rinne (1986) and Symphonic Suite AKIRA (1988) make up the respective first and second albums in the trilogy - and like Akira before it revels in experimentation, with traditional musical styles and modern instrumentation and synthesizers being used to create a wonderful fusion of styles that become almost impossible to clearly categorise.
Geinoh Yamashirogumi has faithfully and accurately reproduced over eighty different styles of traditional music and performances from around the world, but despite having performed internationally to a high degree of critical acclaim, they remain relatively unknown.

高校の時に芸能山城組の「陽は沈む」を聴いて衝撃を受けて 、放送委員会だった自分は勝手に昼食の時間にレコードをかけた。
葬式じゃねえぞ、とかほとんど非難ゴウゴウだったけど何人かは魂を揺さぶられた奴が出てきた。
そんな自分も還暦を迎えました。
@user-tl4ri3gw1v
山城組のブルガリアンボイスは完成度がめちゃくちゃ高いですよね。
本場のポリフォニーに負けない合唱で一気にトランスできます。
あんな曲が流れてきたらお葬式どころじゃなくなりそうw

それが決まる何十年も前から予言してたAKIRA。色んな作品にオマージュされるほどの作品がこうして現実とリンクできる奇跡のような機会を奪われたのは本当に腹立たしい
@skztulip7325
映画と音楽がピッタリ合ってますね!旦那がAKIRAと芸能山城組が大好きで、私も影響されました!
初めて聴いた時何だこれは?と思った衝撃忘れられない。
随分昔、渡米する旦那(当時彼)に頼んで作ってもらったカセットテープ2本の中に芸能山城組の曲が入ってました。だから聴くとその当時の記憶が甦ります😊

大友克洋の着眼点がやばい
アマチュア集団へ楽曲依頼とかどんだけ感性優先してんだ…それに直ぐに後日作曲したこの人らはもはや職人
@tomtom730618
民族音楽調とテクノ音楽調の、伝統と最先端の融合って感じが本当に素晴らしいな
@ab-mw3lg
しかもその最先端が当時の最先端なのが良い
今あまりテクノってきかないからね
