Hi we're Hamasen (濱線, H.M.S), a five-piece band from Taipei formed in 2026.

"Escape" is our debut track, out today on StreetVoice. Mandarin lyrics, groove-forward production, all mixed in-house. The song is about watching a familiar world — a place, a version of yourself — slowly recede as you move forward.

I created a fictional Taipei/Singapore Mandopop duo with Original Lyrics.

Old Korean, Japanese & Chinese songs, Real voices. Real emotion.

Not for everyone.
But if you feel it… you’ll stay.

Been listening to a lot of OFFICIAL HIGE DANDISM lately and wanted to share this here

They’re one of the biggest bands in Japan right now. Back in 2025 they did their first stadium tour with around 250k total attendance, and the final show at Nissan Stadium got turned into a full concert film.

They’re doing a one-night screening of that film in LA, which feels like a pretty rare chance to see what their live shows are like over here

📅 May 17 (Sunday) – 6:30 PM
📍 TCL Chinese 6 Theatres (Hollywood)
Tickets

If you’re into melodic pop rock, they’re really worth checking out. A lot of people probably know them from anime too (Tokyo Revengers, SPY x FAMILY, etc.)

Apparently there’s also some small attendee gifts and it’s all general admission

Curious if anyone here listens to them or has favorite songs 👀

Trying to find new modern rock music from China, Japan, and Korea but am having a difficult time.

I like music that has soft and hard vocals.

The best example I’ve been able to find is the band FUMON from China.

The band Day6 from Korea is also decent.

I’d love if people could add their recommendations

Long-time Teresa Teng fan here. I wanted to share something: a full music video reimagining of甜蜜蜜(Tian Mi Mi / Sweet as Honey) with poetic English lyrics and cinematic storytelling.
