dendrocacagliaSarasvati
Sarasvati is a three-piece girls’ band that has become a legend in the underground music scene of the 1980s.
Formed in 1985, they pursued an especially experimental and avant-garde sound within genres like post-punk and new wave.
Though they never had a major hit, the two releases they put out on indie labels at the time are now rare records that are hard to find.
They had no connection to commercial success, but their musicality was utterly unique.
Their sound—complex song structures woven from odd time signatures and dissonance, layered with the timbre of sticks—was truly “dislocated dance music.” It’s a world you’ll want to experience if ordinary music doesn’t satisfy you and you’re seeking something intellectually thrilling and stimulating.
You may well find yourself completely entranced by its profound allure.
THIS IS MY HOMETOWNKobukuro
It’s a warm song from Kobukuro, imbued with deep feelings for Osaka, where the duo was formed, and for the members’ hometowns.
The acoustic tones, reminiscent of their street-performing days, blend with the duo’s beautiful harmonies to gently envelop the listener’s heart.
The lyrics depict landscapes that remain in one’s heart even after leaving home as an adult, as well as unchanging bonds with old friends—many listeners will likely find their own memories resurfacing.
This track is included as the lead song on the mini-album “THIS IS MY HOMETOWN.” It’s a moving piece you’ll want to listen to when you want to reconnect with your roots.
lightning speedTHE BLUE HEARTS
A rock number with the lightning-bolt rush that grabs the listener’s heart in an instant.
This track voices a powerful resolve that the future isn’t something decided by someone else—it’s a blank page we write on ourselves.
The impulse to charge ahead toward an unseen world, refusing to settle for the status quo, seems to pour in alongside Hiroto Kōmoto’s soulful cry.
Featured on the classic album TRAIN-TRAIN, released in November 1988, it later appeared as the B-side to the single Love Letter.
It’s a song that will give you a strong push when you want to start something new or need the courage to break through your current situation.
DEAR ALGERNONKyosuke Himuro
Kyosuke Himuro, a male singer who enjoyed charismatic popularity among men in their 50s.
He left many classic songs not only with BOØWY but also as a solo artist.
Among his masterpieces, the one I especially recommend is DEAR ALGERNON.
Although the song spans a slightly wide vocal range (mid1C to hiA), the BPM—that is, the tempo—is slow, making it generally easy to sing.
If you keep your volume in check and use a more muffled vocal tone like Himuro does, you can handle the high notes without much difficulty, so it’s a good approach to try and imitate.
StarmineDa-iCE
A massive hit number that represents Da-iCE in 2022, like a grand firework coloring the night sky.
The lyrics, filled with a strong will to keep trying not just once but over and over, could truly be called an anthem for life! The sound is bursting with festival-like exhilaration that makes its huge popularity on TikTok totally understandable—it’s fantastic! Released in August 2022, the song won the Excellence Award at the 64th Japan Record Awards.
The dynamic choreography by s**t kingz’s Shoji is full of life, and dancing it with your friends is sure to deepen your bond!
Ding DongTOKIO
Layered over a sound that evokes the crisp air of winter, the lyrics portray the importance of trust and bonds, warming the listener’s heart.
This song is a classic Christmas love ballad that sings of straightforward love for someone special and the joy of spending time together.
Released in December 2002, it was also used as the theme song for the drama “Yan Papa,” starring group member Tomoya Nagase, so many people may have heard it back then.
Whether you listen to it during a family Christmas or on a chilly walk home, it’s sure to leave you feeling warm and cozy.
This gameKonomi Suzuki
Do you know the anison singer Konomi Suzuki? She’s really cool, so if you like anime songs, you should definitely give her a listen! In “This game,” the notes are extremely high throughout, and it even modulates in the last chorus, making it go even higher.
The overall range of the song is B3 to F5, which is generally on the higher side, and if you try to belt it all in chest voice, your throat will get wrecked (lol).
Suzuki mixes in head voice skillfully.
When hitting notes as high as in “This game,” it’s easier if you focus on resonance rather than just pushing or belting.
That said, it’s not something anyone can do right away, so first try placing a hand on your chest and check that your chest is resonating.
Also, if you forget to breathe, you won’t be able to hit high notes, so take plenty of air through your mouth and line up your breathing with the song’s timing!
