“To Illuminate All that is Shrouded in Darkness…”

Illuminate is a music rotation site, primarily promoting the music of foreign cultures, generally excluding American. The main promotion, however, is music of Japan, and more specifically, the rock of Japan. Rock in Japan is known as “J Rock”. In this site, you can also find select groups of Japanese Pop music, as well, which is called “J Pop”. Visual Kei is another grouping of music that is promoted very prominently here.

The purpose of all this is to pass on the knowledge to the masses; to “spread the love.” With that said, foreign music can be thought of as shrouded in darkness, where the American masses cannot find it. It is this site’s purpose to Illuminate that music, so everyone can see it. Or more accurately, hear it.

So, enjoy what’s here for rotation this week. Feel free to request if you have a song in mind, or if you see something of interest on the list. Hopefully, this site is as helpful as I had envisioned it to be.
