Tsuzuri is a five-piece band formed in Kyoto in 2012.
With piano, guitar, bass, and drums, their sound is pop yet richly layered.
Perhaps influenced by their Kyoto roots, their harmoniously flowing melodies and sunlit timbres are particularly striking.
Their music seems to fit any time of day—waking up in the morning, a leisurely afternoon, or a relaxing evening.
Their intros often grab you right from the start!
White RabbitGreen Yellow Society
I’d like to introduce “White Rabbit” as a song that lets you enjoy a beautiful story.
It’s a tie-in track for the anime “The Secret Flower Garden,” created by Namiko Ishidate to commemorate TOHO animation’s 10th anniversary.
Ryokuoushoku Shakai sings passionately about the protagonist’s emotions.
Since the story is based on a fairy tale, it has a gentle, soft atmosphere.
You can certainly enjoy the song on its own, but I recommend checking it out together with the animation.
The impeccable timing of when the music comes in is part of its charm.
Ho-re!Yuichiro Hanada, Maya Nagata
Just when you think it starts with a melancholy, flamenco-like melody, Ho-Re! suddenly bursts into a cheerful rhythm and tune—it’s a song about vegetables growing in the fields.
With lively, dig-dig beats, it shows, through a fun dance, how potatoes, daikon radishes, and carrots are briskly dug up from the soil.
The witty lyrics are another highlight.
There’s even a little learning element, as you wonder what kinds of vegetables grow in a field.
It’s also fun that familiar dishes made with those vegetables appear in the lyrics.
Come on—sing, dance, and play to the steady Ho-re, ho-re rhythm!
A Drop of StarYuichiro Hanada, Atsuko Ono
The monthly children’s song feature “Song of the Month” for July 2021 is Hoshi no Hitoshizuku (A Drop of Star).
Written and composed by steel pan player Tonchi, this song has a soothing steel pan sound and is sung as a duet by Yuichiro Oniisan and Atsuko Oneesan.
The dance gently sways like the melody—yura~ yura~—so even little kids can relax and move along to the music.
It’s popular with children, of course, but especially with moms, making it a great pick for parents and kids to enjoy together.
A Dream Where Stars FallEir Aoi
Eir Aoi is a hugely popular anime song singer whose releases are almost always tied to collaborations.
She has performed theme songs for famous anime that almost everyone has heard at least once, such as the TV anime Fate/Zero, Sword Art Online, and Kill la Kill.
She is one of those singers whose powerful yet heartrending voice is truly captivating.
fireflyAobouzu
Aobozu is a band formed by three childhood friends from Odawara City, Kanagawa Prefecture, and they made their major debut in 2004 with the album “Hiroshige Blue.” Their 2012 release “Hotaru” is a youthful summer song, with nostalgic yet bittersweet lyrics and a melody that’s quintessentially Aobozu.
Dwelling of the StarsAobouzu
Aobozu’s “Hoshi no Sumika,” the ending theme of the anime TIGER & BUNNY.
It’s a song that expresses the anime’s theme of bonds through Aobozu’s sound.
If you listen closely to the lyrics, you can feel the depth of this track.
This is exactly what deep lyrics are.
The arrangement is crafted down to the fine details, delivering a cool band sound.
