Mitsui's article addresses the domestic self-exoticisation of Japanese popular music through the incorporation of elements of traditional main-island Japanese, Okinawan and/or Asian Pacific regional music. As Mitsui discusses, while related to both the international vogues for folk music (in the 1960&-70s) and world music (in the 1980&-90s), this tendency in Japanese music has been a distinctly local phenomenon which evidences both an introverted and a pan-Asian pop sensibility
