Where to find japanese singers for my game

I am making a music game and there is something been bothering me.... where in the world can I find a song writer or buy license for a song in Japanese? I could make my on music with google translate but that would be so awful lol!

 

I haven't tried it myself, but I've heard that fiverr.com is the hip place for inexpensive freelance contracting. If you search for "Japanese singer" there are some results. I don't know any of them, so caveat emptor, of course.

 

Thanks i go check it out, i need a band though lol. I may have to give up that idea.

 

Have you looked into Vocaloid? https://www.vocaloid.com/en/
This type of synthesized voice music is popular in Japan.
And has been used in the Project Diva series and other rythm games.

 

Japan seems like the obvious choice.

Find a musician you like. Then reach out on their socials. The rest is just paperwork.

 

If you're hiring somebody from Japan, unless they're with a label they probably won't have access to a translator, which is something that's a pretty big deal when you're dealing with international contract agreements.

 

I do have a translator who is fluent in speaking Japanese

 

Good idea, there a lot of those music for free or for cheap thanks

 

If you make anything with it please let me know. I love this kind of stuff

 

Its an anime rhythm game. I am more of an anime artist than making my own video game. Its my first video game project. The game is slowly making good progress with a few team members. Nothing interesting to show yet.

I don't know if this would help, but maybe ask this guy.

I think he's still in Japan. He might probably know, one or two Japanese
people who can sing etc. But most likely, he might be super busy, making
game music these days. Because recently, he released some music on
soundcloud, for a game he's making music for.

Hope you get through, good luck.
