Okkei Japanese Podcast

I've lived in Tokyo for over 10 years and moved more than 10 times. 🏙️ In this episode, I talk about 5 famous Tokyo towns: Asakusa, Shibuya, Nakameguro, Shimokitazawa, and Kichijoji. Old cafés with "morning" sets, 2 a.m. ramen after band gigs, a date who was 50 minutes late… and where I'd actually want to live. Natural Japanese around N3-N2.

I used to spend ¥500,000 on a camera and lens. Now I record this podcast with a tiny action camera. 📷 In this episode, I talk about 3 things I stopped buying: expensive cameras, furniture, and expensive clothes. Why did I stop? What changed in my life? Natural Japanese around N3-N2.

What was the biggest mistake I made as a new freelancer in Japan? 😅 It was so bad that I almost lost my client. In Part 2, I share that story, the good and bad sides of freelancing, why I grew apart from my hometown friends, and how I went from composing music for ads to making Japanese content for you. Natural Japanese around N3-N2. Part 1 is the previous episode.

What is it really like to make a living from music in Japan? 🎸 In Part 1, I talk about my 20s playing in a band in Tokyo: why a show with 20 people can still lose money, how streaming, merch and royalties actually pay, and how money can split a band apart. Then I share how I moved into composing, my first real freelance work. Natural Japanese around N3-N2.

A rambling episode about an ordinary day, taken from one of my livestreams. A missing wallet in the morning, and a meetup where nobody showed up for the first 30 minutes.
