In Tokyo, These Trains Jingle All the Way

While most train stations alert passengers with basic dings and dongs, metro riders in Japan are treated to uniquely crafted melodies. Minoru Mukaiya is the mastermind behind these jingles-he’s made around 200 distinct chimes for over 110 stations. For Minoru, there’s no greater joy than bringing a little bit of music to millions across Japan every day.

Dude. You guys have to hear Casiopea songs, which is this man old band. The band was a legend in Japan and was ahead of its time. They produced top notch fusion-jazz and pop songs which influence and changed the music industry in Japan, for example : a lot of video games music composers of Mario,Sonic, Kirby were Heavily INFLUENCED by Casiopea, which was this old man's band. HIGHLY recommended.

@@Chrisxhi The general announcements in Japan go like this: As the train leaves the previous stop, it announces the next station, transfer info at that station, and any other important announcements in English and Japanese (at some major stations Chinese and Korean are added). As the train approaches the next station, you hear "now approaching X station, the doors are on X side" in Japanese and English. Once the doors open at the station, you hear the following: "X Station, This is X Station. Thank you for riding with us. Watch your step as you leave the train. (Melody Plays) Doors closing, please watch your hands and baggage." This last part is translated of course, but its what it says in Japanese.

Jack Dets - That kind of thinking is outdated. Sure, it still happens a lot but S. Korea has a much higher suicide rate, and Japan's own is about on par with India's. The actual population-normalized number isn't that much higher than the US's own. On the flipside, people in Japan live to a really ripe old age and keep active and healthy throughout thanks to their excellent healthcare. It's also one of the safest places in the world due to strict gun regulations and a very low crime rate.

@daeseongkim93 5 жыл бұрын

+pawala not by much, Japan still ranks 2nd by OECD standards, Korea may be #1 in OECD, but not per capita or non-OECD. There are still 10 other countries in the less-developed world who surpass South Korea. Suicide in Korea is relative to work-related stress and on education, same as Japan. Same could be said about East Asian Tigers in general too with universal healthcare, safest places in the world, low crime, old age, strong economy, and strict gun regulations; this is not only Japan, but Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, Singapore.

There is a reason behind this. For the blind, they identify stations by this melodies. In addition to the music, they also have chimes for doors opening and doors closing. And chimes to inform people on the platform of incoming trains and outgoing trains. Usually you hear the chimes before the voice announcements. Other than being advantages for the blind, it also helps the new generation of mobile users who cannot get their face out of their mobiles (they got eyes but they don't look where they are going).

Like i2h said, it'd be a mess over the intercoms. Many of the stations are way too old, dirty, and lackluster in appearance, that any happy tune would not fit. Plus, the NYC subway system is very slow compared to the rest of the world, with all the delays, service changes, and daily accidents; nowhere near as close as Japan's public transport.

Yeah, only in Asia are there nice things like quality airlines and clean, efficient public transportation
