Many Japanese musical acts make their television performance debut on The Best Ten, but the show has also hosted many artists from all around the world. In the span of 11 years, over 630 episodes were broadcast and more than 400 artists performed. |
The Best Ten | 75,686,493 | History | The show was always notable for the ranking boards clattering away before the announcement by presenter, as they went up to show The Best Ten's top 10 singles of the week. In the case if the artist could not appear, they would jump immediately to announce the next chart position. For the rankings from 11 to 20, they were given 5 seconds screen time for video-sound introduction with the chart performance for the last 4 weeks. In the case if it was the first week, only the one position would be displayed. In 2016, in magazine "Pen", the producer and the director of the program Shuji Yamada revealed, that board construction and idea comes from airport's tables of departures and arrival. |

Every week for the every artist, the staff would elaborate stages set just to enhance the song's atmosphere and performance. Inspired by the Yoru no Hit studio, for the solo artist, they were always accompanied by TBS television's orchestral band, who played on live, prior up until 1985, when the necessarity of the live band to perform for the artist has been reduced and as result replaced by karaoke background sound. Aside of the studio indoor performances, there were on-location, outdoor performances performances as well in the various places, such as an entrance of temple or inside train. Unlike the Yoru no Hit Studio, which allowed artist to perform in full chorus, in the Best Ten it was always one and half chorus. Sometimes before the start of artist's performance, the presenters read very quickly one of them randomly chosen postcard letter within the time span during intro. After the end of performance, they would sit on the large sofa. At the end of the broadcast and during the ending role credits staff roles, each time a memorial group photo has been taken from the large sofa from the up upon the whole scale. |
The Best Ten | 75,686,493 | History | In the case if the artist couldn't made it on time, had on the same day concert, shooting or filming, or didn't want to appear on the television, the presenters were hosting phone call interview and some year later interview through long-distance camera interview. |

However, in February 1979, TBS announced that the scoring ratio would be changed from 20 points to 30 points for radio and from 40 to 30 points for postcards (record points and cable points remained unchanged).

Weltklang | 75,686,507 | Weltklang is a German electronic music project that was formed in West Berlin in 1980. Current members are Thomas Voburka and René Steuns. |
|
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | Fictional stage personas | According to the band, Weltklang (an allusion to the eponymous East-German musical instrument brand manufactured in Markneukirchen) was formed in the East-German town of Schwerin in 1980. In 1979, Vienna-born Voburka had founded the West Berlin based electronic music label Exil-System. In 1980, the band released the Minimal wave track VEB Heimat. Voburka wrote a letter to West German music magazine Sounds explaining that his label had recorded two technology students from Schwerin, which the magazine did not fact check and wrote that the record had been smuggled from East-Berlin. According to Voburka, the idea of a fictional East-German punk band was born after a visit to East Berlin. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | VEB Heimat (1980) | Weltklang's first release, the 7” single “VEB Heimat/Hoffnung / Sehnsucht ??” was brought out in 1980. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | VEB Heimat (1980) | Inspired by the fast rise of Neue Deutsche Welle and by the Punk subculture's DIY attitude Voburka's main principle was to remove all dispensable ornamentation and polish from his music, and to use the simplest and most minimalist structures. On "VEB Heimat" for instance he made sole use of a simple Roland SH09 Synthesizer line, a stripped down monophonic analogue synthesizer from Roland Corporation's classic SH-series. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | VEB Heimat (1980) | The song itself was based upon a minimalist, filtered bass sequence. In addition to this sparse backing, the track featured a furious and repetitive vocal line by Voburka, reiteratively quoting an excerpt from the national anthem of Austria, Land der Berge, Land am Strome. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | VEB Heimat (1980) | Whereas the first half of the song title “VEB Heimat” refers to the socialist-tinted expression Volkseigener Betrieb (a state owned workplace or establishment in the German Democratic Republic) the second word Heimat is a thoroughly and hard to translate German term, comparable to "homeland" in English. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | Response | Not hugely successful at first, the unique and futuristic sounding “VEB Heimat” managed to equal an international cult status over the following years, particularly within the Minimal wave and Minimal Electro music scene. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | Response | Weltklang has since then often been referred to by artists such as DJ Hell or Optimo (Espacio). In 2003 for example - 23 years after its original release date - "VEB Heimat" made it into the top 3 of DJs Hell's charts of the year. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | Response | Ever since its original release in 1980 “Veb Heimat” has been re-released on numerous occasions, primarily for compilation albums. Apart from its integration in compilation albums such as 80's Minimal Electronics (Volume 1), Return Of Flexi-Pop 3 (Tribute To Flexi-Pop 13) and The Call Of The Banshees, in 2003 "VEB Heimat" was also used as opening track for DJ Hell's hugely successful New Deutsch compilation which was released on International DeeJay Gigolo Records. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | Response | In 2018 "VEB Heimat" was chosen by JD Twitch for his German Post Punk Compilation "Kreaturen der Nacht", released on Strut Records and distributed by !K7 Music. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | 2004 - Present | On the occasion of Weltklang's 25th anniversary, in 2004 Voburka decided to reform the project, together with London based programmer, producer and engineer René Steuns. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | 2004 - Present | Since then Weltklang have produced various remixes for artists such as Aeronautica, Alter Ego, Asmodeus X, Fall Of Saigon, Kinder Aus Asbest, Mono 45UPM, P1/e, Plastic Japanese Toys, Soldout and Sonnenbrandt as well as the somewhat obscure "Liebesgrüsse aus Ost-Berlin" compilation album. Not only for their original Material but also for their remixes Weltklang remain true to their minimalist and deconstructive DIY approach. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | 2004 - Present | In 2009 the remixes were bundled on the 2x12" "Weltklang - Remixes", released on Exil System. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | 2004 - Present | In 2019 the album "Klášter" and the 12" "Vorwaerts" were released on Exil-System. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | 2004 - Present | Due to the 40th anniversary in 2020, the single sided 4" "Freundschaft" was released on vinylograph. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | 2004 - Present | In 2021 the 12" "Rueckwaerts" and the 2x12" "Vorwaerts/Rueckwaerts" were released on Exil-System. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | 2004 - Present | The 6 Tracks of the 2022 Weltklang album "Weltraum", released on Exil-System, were mainly recorded by Voburka between 1972-1976 and edited by him in 2021. Instruments used on this record are the Arp Odyssey, Moog Sonic Six and the Roland Space Echo. |
Weltklang | 75,686,507 | On Stage | Furthermore from 2005 on Weltklang have played various, sporadic live shows throughout Europe, with critically acclaimed gigs in Belgium, Germany, Sweden and most recently Ukraine. |

He describes himself as a "liberal-religious omnivore" who is at home in pagan practices. |
