muji
anyone who has been around me in the past couple of weeks knows i have a new obsession.
muji is essentially a japanese ikea with less colour and a more minimalistic design. they sell everything from furniture, appliances and loft apartments (that look like they’d be impossible to make messy) to clothing, notebooks, little wooden toys, food and music.
i don’t want to write about their wonderful products too much. rather, you should just check out the sites (us or eu, jp or com) and click around. there’s a lot of affordable and desirable stuff in there. my orders were extremely quick in arriving (only 2 days!) and i am very satisfied with them. why not buy something, too?
now for the music. hopefully i will have the complete muji cd collection soon, and of course will share it as a christmas gift to my friends here at fyours. i’ve normally always been able to find what i set out for (and more) in terms of music on the internet, but i must say this is probably the most difficult, complicated search and download i’ve ever done.
each muji cd is numbered and features a traditional style of music from various cultures. for example: BGM8 features traditional musics from sweden, BGM12 paris musette and BGM14 celtic musics from southern england. they play them in the stores. they’re wonderful, educational and make for easier listening than even the sims’ soundtrack.
so i’ll list out the various MUJI BGM compilation albums below. the links will become active as i complete my collection.
for reference, most of this music is 320kbps mp3, complete with album artwork, collected and tagged.
BGM1980-2000 cd.a cd.b cd.c – Japanese Ambient Electronic Music
BGM2 – Metro Musicians in Paris
BGM3 – Traditional Music from Southern Italy
BGM4 – Irish Celtic Music
BGM5 – Music from Puerto Rico
BGM6 – Traditional Music from Andalucía
BGM7 – Traditional Music from Scotland
BGM8 – Traditional Music from Sweden
BGM9 - Traditional Music from Napoli
BGM10 - Modern Tango Music
BGM11 – Hawaiian Music
BGM12 – Paris Musette
BGM13 - Traditional Music from Brazil
BGM14 - Celtic Music from Southern England
BGM15 – Traditional Baroque Music in Prague
BGM X – Christmas Music
important update – feb 16, 2011
i’ve had a few people mention in the comments section that the zip files above aren’t opening properly. if you’re having the same trouble, please try downloading the files found right here
they’re in a .7z format, which is similar to .zip
i can’t believe nobody has downloaded these
i must be alone in thinking this is amazing music. BGM1980-2000 in particular.

Hi Paul,
wonderful job done. Looked for it quite some time.
By extracting the files I noticed the following.
BMG6: 14 corrupt
BMG7: 4 corrupt
BMG9: 7 corrupt
BMG11: 10 corrupt
BMG CD C: 3-05 corrupt
If you would find the time to see to these would be great.
Take care

hi
this is likely a problem on your end. try re downloading the files completely before extracting.
Monday, August 30, 2010 at 14:24
I seem to be experiencing the same problems as ray while extracting using the latest versions of 7zip and winrar.. if it’s not any trouble, is it possible to re-up the pack or of these single mp3s files? Would really, really appreciate it! Thank you so much for all of these. Rare beauties indeed.

Thank you SO much for hosting these!!! A few months back I was on a wild man-hunt for these discs and they ARE so difficult to find anywhere… needless to say I gave up.
Thanks again!

my husband heard a few tracks in one of the stores in singapore and fell in love with them immediately! we went to all the outlets in country and couldn’t find anymore for sale. thanks for making them available online!
