December MorningNEW!Seiko Matsuda
This winter ballad, which closes out the 1981 album “Kaze Tachinu” (The Wind Rises), paints a scene of waiting for a cherished visitor at a lodge on a morning when powdery snow is dancing in the air.
The delicate lyrics by Takashi Matsumoto and melody by Kazuo Zaitsu, a renowned duo, let you feel both the crisp, clear chill of December and the warmth indoors at the same time.
With acoustic production arranged by Shigeru Suzuki, the sound avoids flashiness yet gently seeps into the heart.
It’s the perfect song for a quiet morning as the year draws to a close, when you want to look back on the past year and take things slow.
Disney Jazz Waltz MedleyJacob Koller
A waltz medley by Jacob Koller that bathes the world of Disney in jazz.
It begins with the dreamy sonorities of Alice in Wonderland, moves into the graceful rhythm of Someday My Prince Will Come, and flows on to the warm melody of When You Wish Upon a Star, gently enveloping the listener.
This arrangement lets you enjoy fresh facets of timeless favorites.
Its delicate touch and beautiful rhythm make it perfect for relaxation or a quiet night.
A soothing piano medley where the freedom of jazz meets Disney’s gentle charm.
Dead Parody Dancedo~pamine
An electroswing number that exposes society’s absurdity while keeping you dancing.
Created by Dōpamin, this track appears on the album “Candy Butler,” released at the event THE VOC@LOiD Cho M@STER 59 held at Makuhari Messe in April 2025.
Its sound blends bouncy rhythms with club-track beats, weaving in distinctive motifs like zombies and a slippery everyday life.
The meta, sardonic lyrics—framing “pretending to dance” as “pretending not to die”—really get you.
I think it will resonate with anyone living with contradictions in their daily life.
Leave it to Denziman!Ken Narita
This song, which played during the ending of 1980’s Denshi Sentai Denziman, is a passionate track with lyrics by Kazuo Koike, composition and arrangement by Chumei Watanabe, and vocals by Ken Narita.
The lyrics question how to confront the Vader clan that threatens Earth, and powerfully call out to viewers with the refrain, “Leave it to us.” The lively brass and vocoder-processed electronic sounds sonically embody the “electronic” in the show’s title, while Narita’s robust vocals captivate listeners from children to adults.
Released by Nippon Columbia in March as a single, it was paired with the opening theme “Aa Denshi Sentai Denziman.” It’s a classic recommended not only for kids who admire righteous heroes, but also for adults who fondly remember the fervor of tokusatsu’s golden era.
Dear…Kana Nishino
This song, which expresses overflowing feelings during time spent apart, is included on Kana Nishino’s eighth single, “Dear…/MAYBE,” released in December 2009.
Chosen as the official song for NTT Docomo’s “Do Your Best, Exam Takers ’09–’10” campaign, it carries a message of support for students preparing for exams.
It doesn’t depict a breakup—just a brief time when the two can’t meet—yet it conveys, with refreshing directness, the aching longing that arises, and the sense that with you by my side, I can overcome any hardship, all set to an R&B-tinged pop ballad.
It’s a poignant winter love song that we especially recommend to those in long-distance relationships or anyone feeling the loneliness of not being able to see someone precious.
DESTINYsleep-talking
The single released in June 2015, used as the ending theme for the TV anime Gintama°, is a track that epitomizes Negoto’s musical style.
Its synth sound rides on a groovy rhythm, complemented by Sachiko Aoyama’s transparent, airy vocals that resonate pleasantly.
Centered on the grand theme of fate, the lyrics portray a protagonist who, though uncertain, strives to move forward—something many listeners will relate to.
The keyword repeated in the chorus sticks in your head, giving the song an addictive quality that makes you want to play it again and again.
The track was later included on the album ETERNALBEAT and is known as a signature song from the period when Negoto fused danceable elements with their band sound.
It’s an emotional pop tune that combines a sense of speed with refreshing exhilaration.

As the theme song for Kirin Beverage’s Chasse commercial, it became a household talking point and peaked at No.
5 on the Oricon charts.
Marking a confident first step as a singer, this work remains an enduring anthem that continues to encourage all who chase their dreams.
