Brief introduction of Japanese pop music

Japanese pop music can be divided into traditional japanese pop and popular japanese pop. Japanese traditional music is called Bangle in Japanese. Usually, "foreign music" is used as an antonym, which refers to traditional Japanese music except western music. Compared with western music, the seven-tone scale of modern Bangle is a five-tone scale (only Fallas), and the beat of Bangle is mostly even beat of 24 beats, with almost no odd beat, more acoustic music and less instrumental music. Japanese POP music (English: Japanese pop, often abbreviated as J-POP) refers to Japanese pop music. This R& was created by a Japanese radio station J-WAVE in 1988, and then widely used in Japan to refer to modern music influenced by the West, including pop music, R & amp, rock, dance, hip-hop and soul music. Japan has the largest physical music market in the world. Taking 20 1 1 as an example, the annual output value of the physical record market (only counting the sales of singles, albums and music videos) is about $3 1 billion, accounting for 30% of the world market. The production level of Japanese pop is world-class.
