The Official Hidemi Uematsu Thread

KarenPang · #1 9th March 2009, 10:45 AM

Ladies & Gents , I bring you another great & very under-rated indie artiste in the form of Hidemi Uematsu

I have to take my hat off Roxanne @ http://charisma2.livejournal.com for introducing to me Hidemi's music because I seriously have not come across such an unique voice in today's jpop music scene .

Too bad I don't know much about Hidemi except the fact that she's in her early 20's & so far she has released 2 singles in which both singles's material were written & composed by her

In anycase , hope you will have fun listening to her stuff as she's really good imo . It's quite hard to say what kinda music she does , I say it's a cross between a good mix of indie pop , r&b , folk thrown in for good measures .

Yey! I love love her!

I want an album already lol and she's barely on her second single...

Her voice...is just...woah...

Anyway...thanks for uploading the second single, I didn't have it <3

I remember you posted the Dl link for her first single a few months ago and I really loved both songs and she sings so damn good too

She's so awesome, and it's so sad she's under-rated too

she deserves better imo, her voice is so good

the 2nd single is nice, but i like the first single just a bit more imo

, I was the 1 who posted her debut single last Oct , more people should know about her in AHS just like BREAKERZ

& I agree with you , her debut single's a bit more stronger than her latest one but it's still good for me

yeah I love Jidai....but I still love Trauma more...and Dear My Friends.

YAY , glad that you like Tramua , Seb

Amrai-chan · #11 13th March 2009, 03:59 AM

Very nice! Her voice reminds me of someone but I can't put my finger on it.

lead singer of Superfly maybe ?

I have added in Dear My Friend's PV for download in the 1st post

Amrai-chan · #13 13th March 2009, 04:30 AM

Actually I've never listened to Superfly (knowing that it was them anyway) but I'll look them up as well.

She must just have one of these voices hehe. And thanks for uploading the PV.

KarenPang · #14 13th March 2009, 04:35 AM

I heard a bit of Superfly on MTV China so that's why I can't help but draw similarities to Superfly & Hidemi , voice wise

Hidemi's PVs are frankly not outstanding as she's in an indie label but she make it up for her music so it's all good for me

Amrai-chan · #15 13th March 2009, 04:59 AM

Yeah it's the music that's important.

Sundae · #16 13th March 2009, 06:58 AM

I just clicked on this thread because her name is familiar so she's completely new to me. Her voice is so different from anyone else. And not different in a bad way, but appealing. I loved Jidai from the beginning. Though...does she always wear a hat? If she does wear the hat, she should sell hats or do promos for them. One of them on her website looks to be knitted and she looks so cool in them. Made me want one.

I think so

since the 1st time I've seen her pic from Dear My Friends / Trauma onwards , it's as that so yeah

thesilentspeaker · #18 13th March 2009, 04:29 PM

Oh^^ I love her songs too~ But I prefer her 1st single.. I love her style too

But her PVs are always very low budget eh?

yeah can't be helped since she's under an indie & not a major record label

CHE.R.RY · #20 15th March 2009, 11:58 PM

Oops I didn't realize the Jidai single was already posted in here

....Dang it...well I put it up in the download section too lol. But anyways, I almost completely forgot about poor Hidemi

. I really like Jidai, but I think I prefer Dear My Friends a little more
