Favoriting The Mike Rogers Show: Playlist from April 6, 2022 Favoriting

Mike Rogers's avatar View Mike Rogers's profile Favoriting

Playing the best of Japanese Indies and underground (and other stuff). Music you will hear nowhere else! Mike has been fired from every Tokyo FM station at least once and some of them 4 times! I wear it as a stinky badge of honor because FM in Japan sucks so much. Tune in! Be there!

I didn't make the videos to make money so I just gave them to the bands to do as they wished. Some were shown on TV... I just wanted to di something that remains after I die and show that I was "in this scene."

Mike Rogers:

Ultradmano san, Yes. You are right. But when I handed the videos over to the bands, I just wanted the entire workld to see them. I gave them all rights and ownership (maybe that was stupid, I don't care) because even though I did that, when a TV station would contact me and ask for permission, it is like going to the dentist.
Avatar 6:24pm

I'd tell the Tv station, "The Band owns it 100%!" they's still ask me for signing some papers... Pain

it's because Japan music publishing services (JASRAC) control the music business 100% - on the other hand it is why Japanese bands still sell CDS here and DVDs.
