experienceMari Henmi
Mari Henmi was born in Zushi, Kanagawa Prefecture, and spent many of her early years in Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture.
She is of mixed heritage, with a Spanish-American father and a Japanese mother.
She studied ballet in childhood and reportedly dreamed of becoming a ballerina while in elementary school.
She made her singing debut in 1960 and drew attention as a sexy kayō (pop) singer with her second single, “Keiken” (Experience).
Kenzen Robo DaimidalerEndo Association
You might be fooled by the energy and how cool the melody is, but it’s still a song sprinkled with dirty jokes.
It’s probably fine to listen to, but if you sing it, people might give you weird looks—it’s a gloriously dumb (and I mean that as a compliment!) track.
As the name “Endo-kai” suggests, Masaki Endo from JAM Project is one of the members singing it.
genealogyWataru Takada
When you hear the word “genealogy,” you might imagine some complicated family tree, but this is a lyric that gently conveys what it means to be a parent and how precious they are.
Also, Takada-san’s singing—who was active as a folk singer—beautifully evokes the atmosphere of the era.
Rights-Bought GirlUtsu-P
Vocaloid producer Utsu-P delivers rock sounds infused with loud and screamo to listeners.
Among his tracks, one that especially resonates with gloomy moods is “Purchased-Rights Girl,” produced in 2022.
Its passionate band sound, unfolding with a modern flair, leaves a strong impression.
It carries a powerful message from a woman living in a glamorous world.
It’s a number where you can fully savor Seikai’s singing—both cute and strong.
Give this energetic rock tune a listen; it wraps up feelings of loneliness and anxiety.
CageChihiro Onitsuka
This is their third single, released in 2000.
The lyrics are striking for their portrayal of unstable emotions: the intense anxiety that strikes when you’re alone, and the way you cling to good memories from the past as if to fill a missing piece in your heart.
The up-tempo sound, featuring a light, airy piano tone, is also memorable.
In contrast to the dark mood of the lyrics, it seems to express a restless urge to escape from the present place and emotions that waver without settling.
Careful With That Axe, EugenePink Floyd
It’s a masterpiece that lets you experience an indescribable kind of fear—completely different from the intentionally staged terror of background music! It’s a hidden early gem by Pink Floyd, the pinnacle of British progressive rock and a band that also achieved record-breaking commercial success.
The song first appeared as the B-side to the UK single “Point Me at the Sky,” released in 1968.
Even though it was a B-side, it was frequently performed live at the time, which shows how important a place it held in their repertoire.
It’s packed with the psychedelic atmosphere characteristic of their early work, and the impact of the moment when bassist and vocalist Roger Waters suddenly lets out a scream as if he’s gone mad is absolutely staggering.
Also note that it was re-recorded and included in the soundtrack to Michelangelo Antonioni’s 1970 masterpiece Zabriskie Point under the new title “Come in Number 51 (Your Time Is Up).”

Chaos PanicYellow Magic Orchestra
It’s included as the B-side to YMO’s signature song “Kimi ni, Mune Kyun.” With its catchy melody and sound, it’s the kind of tune you’ll find yourself humming after just one listen.
Brimming with euphoria, it’s a song you’ll want to play on a sunny Sunday morning with the windows wide open.
