This is a song by Tsubakiya Quartet that exudes a glossy, slightly decadent mood.
The melody hints at the influence of classic Japanese pop (kayōkyoku), intertwining with vocalist Yuji Nakada’s sultry voice to create a unique world of its own.
The track depicts both the exhilaration of being swept up in love and the poignant moment of snapping back to reality, drawing you in with its precarious balance.
Released as a single in August 2007, it also served as the opening theme for Iwate Menkoi TV’s “BEATNIKS.” It was later included on the album “TOKYO CITY RHAPSODY.” It’s a cool, mature number that’s perfect for a nighttime drive or for solitary contemplation.

ALI is a band that blends funk, soul, jazz, and more into a highly original sound that has earned acclaim from devoted music lovers.
One of their tracks featuring rapper Hannya has drawn particular attention.
Set over an urban, disco-inspired track, it seems to portray the inner resolve of a seasoned professional.
The song was chosen as the opening theme for the anime The Fable and was released as a split single in June 2024.
It’s sure to stir your spirit when you’re devoted to something, and it’s also a perfect fit for sinking into a cool atmosphere while gazing at the city lights at night.
VinylKing Gnu
King Gnu is a four-piece rock band that fuses diverse genres such as rock and jazz, continually staying at the forefront of the J-POP scene.
This track, included on their album “Tokyo Rendez-Vous,” released in October 2017, has been featured as the theme song for PERSOL Tempstaff’s commercials since January 2018.
The groove created by the primal drums bursting in from the intro and the sinuous, rolling bassline is truly outstanding.
The lyrics, which feel like a cry to shed one’s façade and confront things in their essence, possess a compelling power that stirs the listener’s heart.
The song is crafted to let you fully savor vocalist Satoru Iguchi’s raw yet taut singing, and its sound—charged with that initial, explosive impulse—is irresistibly appealing.
Fake Love and HighballLET ME KNOW
LET ME KNOW is a three-piece rock band whose consistent musicality has earned them popularity not only in Japan but also in Korea.
Their razor-sharp sound is stunning, and despite forming in November 2023, they’ve already established a unique style.
This work is one of their signature tracks, drawing attention both at home and abroad, including reaching No.
1 on music charts in Korea.
Throughout the song, it carries an ’80s city-pop vibe and was also chosen as the theme song for the drama “Highball for Snack Girls.” The lyrics, which depict a night of a heart swayed by highballs and sinking into false love, blend with the cool sound to create a sophisticated, urban mood.
It’s a stylish track that’s perfect for a nighttime drive or quietly enjoying a drink at home.
TOKYONulbarich
Centered around singer-songwriter JQ, Nulbarich is a band that operates without fixed members.
Their signature is an urban sound grounded in R&B and neo-soul, but the track I’m introducing here has a special background—it’s a song JQ wrote before forming the band.
Released in January 2021, it sings of the sense of entrapment felt in an opaque society and the hope to keep looking forward nonetheless.
Its unadorned lyrics are likely to resonate with many listeners.
The sophisticated melody riding on the groove is perfect for those moments when you want to step away from the rush of everyday life and face yourself.

SIRUP’s tracks blend a sophisticated R&B sound with a laid-back groove.
This song is included on his EP “SIRUP EP2,” released in August 2018.
It paints a romantic world where a rainy day—often felt as gloomy—turns into a special dance floor for just two, and its stylish lyrics leave a strong impression.
The positive message of enjoying even negative situations showcases SIRUP’s unique sensibility.
With his silky-smooth vocals intertwining with sleek, urban melodies, this number will elevate your time at home—and is perfect not only for a rainy-day drive but also for making any indoor moment feel a touch more refined.
naporiVaundy
Vaundy, who has garnered attention for his modern musical sensibility and proven his talent as a creator, delivers a track from his acclaimed May 2020 release “strobo” that delicately captures the fleeting tenderness and comfort of intimate moments with a lover.
Its chill sound and whisper-like vocals create a stylish yet bittersweet mood.
Starting in September 2021, the song was also featured in a commercial for Bourbon Alfort Mini Chocolate, helping it become a long-running hit.
It’s a number that makes you want to sink into the late night alone, showcasing the depth of Vaundy’s musicality.
