Ginger Root - "Juban District" (Official Music Video) 

cant wait to inject this song into my veins edit - song injected, ascension has been achieved

The sampling of a conversation in Japanese 2:33 is between Usagi and Naru from Sailor Moon Cassette Collection 3: Prelude Of Romance ???

Ah love the old cars of yesterday

awesome

This is one of those songs that live rent free in your head. Good job Gingerroot.

最近聞いた曲で1番ハマってる

thank you Ginger Root for releasing this gem on my birthday

I love driving through Glasgow at night with this on repeat.

On this day I'll mark and believe to this artist. Soon this artist will have large amount of supporters and i will always believe on that.

completely obsessed with this omg

わけわからんけど懐かしさがある

impeccable

Awesome! This should be more popular!

He's gonna be a household name

I feel like should comment for when he gets really famous I have proof

where were you able to get your hands on a taxi sign like that o.o

The bass in the headphones is next level. So the next few 50 views might be from just me. Singer's voice strangely got some Dave Grohl vibes which just gets me sucked into the repeat button on the play button.

Saw these guys live in Austin a few years back. There were like only 10 people in the crowd. At the end of the show, I asked Cameron if they take credit cards for their vinyls. He was like, nah we only take cash but take the vinyl anyways and Venmo me later. Super cool group of guys. I got their signed mahjong room vinyl hanging up on my wall! I love seeing that their fanbase is growing!

Loretta is stuck in my head!!! I trust this will be even more lovely

One day we will be one of those “I new this artist before they got famous” fans.

This song is incredible. I owe hundreds of dollars to the LA public library.

Yes again

I’m glad to 80’s city pop revival. Eiichi Ohtaki,Tatsuro Yamashita,KIRINJI,they will be your favorite artists. Love from Japan ps：I forgot to add Hiroshi Sato and Makoto Matsushita.Awakening and FIRST LIGHT are masterpiece👍

Ginger root makes my plants grow faster and healthier than ever!

絶妙な80年代テイストがとても良い。

omg at 2:54 when they're both in the backseat and look at each other like "wait who's driving the car". That part fricking killed me lmao

you have perfectly captured the citypop style in your music, and listening to something current that shines in this way is rare and beautiful.

this art direction, the editing, the neon overlays, the cropped format, the music. everything here is just perfection.

前作などに続き、色んなところに日本の要素が散りばめられていてとても素敵です✨ TOYOTAの車を使ってくれていたり、日本の昭和のシティポップだったり、とても嬉しいです。

Do not stop. No matter what anyone says. This, this is music. Perfection.

I'm a new listener, but from the very first frame, I felt a deeply personal nostalgia. Not just because of the masterfully emulated sound of the bubble-era, but because of the car! My late Grandmother bought a 1985 Toyota Camry a year later, it had been either used as a rental or a taxi. I spent my entire childhood riding along to the radio in that car, and years after she passed it became my car. I never drove it during a short milieu in Los Angeles, and it certainly wasn't any of the taxis I sat in the back of when visiting Japan...but for a second it felt like it could have been. Thank you! For a visit to parts of my pasts that happened, and parts that were a dream.

Alllll rightttt now let's GIT ITTTTTT. 🤩

From the bottom of my heart, I think you’ll make it big. Your potential has already mattered into something special, and now all that’s left is to get more ears on it. The latest batch of singles to come out is some of the best stuff you’ve made imo, so I’m stoked to hear the full ep!

The quirkiness of tune, melody, and rhythm got me standing at a weird timeline between the 80s and the present. Worth dancing freely to it.

omg i found out about this band literally yesterday i'm so hyped for a new song 💳💥💥💳💥💥💳💳💥💥💳💥

This is aesthetic as FUCK. I think I'm as obsessed with the VHS footage as I am with the funky groove. One of those instances where a music video really adds depth to an already great song.

Bless the RU-vid algorithm for showing me your songs, they are all amazing beyond words. I'm going to die of excitement waiting for this one.

2:34 why nobody wondering that wheres this anime noise came from? i want to know tell me!

YOUR AESTHETIIICS, I FUCKING ADORE THEM! and the citypop-y tunes and instruments, boppy funk

I could name 10 artists or bands that sound like this but none of them sound like this. Truly transcendent and the most refreshing experience I've had with a song(album/artist) in a long long time.

the "wah wuh wuh wah wuh" sound of the piano never fails to make me happy i love funky groovy songs like these man

can't decide if cameron lew is the asian american donny benet, or donny benet is the italian australian cameron lew. i win either way i guess

I can’t stop smiling while listening to ginger root and just found about him .

A 1986 Toyota Camry will outlive all of us.

This the freshest indie i've seen for a long time. So cool.

If I had the money to invite Ginger Root to play at my wedding reception in the Philippines, I would. Ginger Root has been there for my fiancé and I whether driving from city to city or just having dinner at home.

i hope 88rising got their ear heart brian and eye seeing ur talent almost like joji

La onda que tiras es muy retro y en lo personal es algo que me llama la atención, además tus videos son geniales. La primera canción que escuché y me engancho fue "Loretta" un 100 te doy

omg no puedo esperar mas, dios necesito escucharlo!!!!

Just discovered this yesterday, and was like, "ehh I don't know if I'm feeling it." Fast forward to it popping back up in my mix and now I've listened to it at least 15 times back to back. It's amazing! The f***ing chord progressions got the hairs on the back of my neck standing.

Cameron’s work gets me going every day. I always have Weather playing in the background.

i saw toyota camry, i click.

ll Ginger Root Theory ll Part 1 ll This is the show Ginger Root makes before, during, or after he gets famous in the EP Nisemono, he's even shown season 2 in the Holy Hell Music Video. This is not just random EP's, it's a story. The Events of EP City Slicker are a TV show made by Ginger Root or Cameron Lew before, during, or after the events of EP Nisemono.

Man I got a speeding ticket jamming to this at 5am. I was upset I had to turn it down to explain why I was speeding.

This guy knows what he's doing. To not only create a song this catchy/pleasant, but to also create the perfect video for it takes some real vision. Excited to see what's to come for/from this project!

Joder amigo estás llevando al city pop al siguiente nivel felicidades

It's like this guy has a whole hardware shop full of old synths, 808s and stuff

Just noticed that the lyrics are written in the newspaper clipping at 0:22

Here before really famous gang?

I ain't groove this hard to a new track since... damn, since Loretta

i feel like the youtube algorithm just kissed me on the mouth

First

got my VHS signed by him and we had to do three different types of money transactions to figutre it out, very memorable and will be going to all their concerts when they come back to my town. XD

I think I just found a new artist to stan for. Not many artists that I went through their discography and love all of it, but he’s one of them.

I'm so hype for this release!!! Ginger Root is the GOAT

I cannot get enough of this bands jams. It's incredibly refreshing sounds that make my brain happy.

Watching Ginger's MV make me want to change my track in college to film production. I always thought it was a waste until I saw this omg!!! He gave me back my drive

Everything about this revives something in me. My love of design, music production, editing, neon city aesthetics, typography, feeling hopeful in life.

I sincerely hope that blue first generation Toyota Camry is in good hands. That's a rare car to come by these days. Oh, great tune, by the way. 😅

This song is stuck in my head. Are you also here to watch these two drive through the Juban District for the 38th night in a row?

Visuals and the sound aside, I'm convinced Ginger Root really is a time traveler from the 80s

2:41 Bro I died 😂✊

Tiene taleno el cabron revivanme cuando se haga famoso este wey

Dear members of Ginger Root this song has officially made me a fan!

i always wanna make music like this, but my knowledge about this genre is zero.

dunno what he's doing to that guitar and those synths but it sound funky af

Just discovered your stuff and holy hell. This is the most vibe-like sound ever. GOOD SHIT DUDE

This is a lofi-japanese 80s-jack stauber- 70s- chinese VIBE!!

This song made me get up and dance on LSD

When a taxi driver figures out he's gotten stuck in some dream like space-time loop and his strange passenger is messing with his repetitive OCD to keep him stuck in the dream.

最高です！ TOYOTAカムリ！ 毎日聴いてるよー

Wonder if 刘国明 really is Cameron's name in Chinese

I can hear Brasilian skies from this

Loretta la única canción que la puedo escuchar en bucle

Coolest aesthetic ever

I'm just shocked by this, your songs are a masterpiece. This is what I need. Thank you It's lo-fi City Pop?

The intro reminded of the good old Toyota ads

godlike

Juban District!? What’s where Sailor Moon lives!😍

Saw them in Cleveland earlier this week. Fantastic show with a much larger crowd than I expected. Glad to see that these guys are growing and I can't wait to hear more.

Watching this made my brain go “Wait a second, that looks like Downtown L.A.- WAIT THAT IS L.A.! THAT’S THE LITTLE TOKYO AND CHINA TOWN AREAS.”

山下達郎好きだったら聴くよね！

I'm so ready for the full city slicker EP

なんか地方のデパートの婦人服売場で流れてそう

A new fan here Accidentally clicked on one of your songs and i never thought I'd like it that much 💕

I can't believe I forgot to leave a comment here 4 years ago

Juban is district where Usagi Tsukino (Sailor Moon) lives

I wake up every morning screaming "It's so good to get down at the Juban District All choked up but you'd maybe pass me up". My wife hates it.

Back to say if you, Ginger Root, came to Mobile, AL I know the place that would book you and I have a cadre of some 2 dozen alone who would come... what I'm saying is please come to our city. You have a fair sized fan base and drunk people who would love to discover your music.
