disasterYotsukaido Nature

Yotsukaido Nature is a unit from Yotsukaido City in Chiba Prefecture that emerged in the 1990s and brought fresh energy to the Japanese hip-hop scene.

They made their debut in 1995 with the mini-album “Yotsukaido Nature,” leaving behind a body of work noted for its high level of craftsmanship in both track-making and lyrics.

In 1996, they appeared at “Sanpin CAMP,” organized by ECD, and at “Dai LB Matsuri,” hosted by Scha Dara Parr—key events in the Japanese rap scene of the time.

Their lyrics, which captured everyday life and social issues from a unique perspective, and their beats that skillfully incorporated jazz and funk, earned them strong support from many listeners.

Members KZA and DJ KENT are now active domestically and internationally as FORCE OF NATURE in the club scene.

They are highly recommended for those interested in exploring hip-hop and house music.

Riko Ishino, who began her entertainment career as a 20th-term student at Actors School Hiroshima, debuted in 2014 as the lead vocalist of Idol Renaissance.

In May 2018, she joined the girls’ rock band Akai Koen as their vocalist, revealing new facets of her talent through her powerful singing.

After the band disbanded in 2021, she launched a solo career and, in parallel, formed the band Aooo in August 2023.

Active across diverse fields—idol, rock band, and solo—she has earned widespread acclaim for her abilities, including performing the national anthem before a professional baseball game at Mazda Zoom-Zoom Stadium Hiroshima in 2016.

Her voice combines delicate expressiveness with formidable power, spanning genres from pop to rock.

As a new talent in J-pop, she continues to capture the attention of music fans.

The announcement commercial for the Southern All Stars feature streaming on U-NEXT uses “Sakura, Hirari.” It’s a digital-only single released in January 2025.

The lyrics are said to sing of the feelings of earthquake victims, and while they convey pain and sorrow, they also evoke a sense of strength and hope to move forward again.

Its beautiful, warm, spring-like imagery is also captivating, making it a heartwarming song.

Romance at the Ends of the Earth
Saihate Romance Hiroshi Oe

Oe Hiroshi’s masterpiece “Saihate Roman,” noted for its grand melody, features a very relaxed tempo.

As a result, each note is relatively long, yet there are well-placed rests throughout.

While there are moments with the delicate vocal lines characteristic of enka, the extremely slow tempo makes the singing feel closer to 1970s pop.

To handle the abundance of long tones, it’s recommended to add dynamic nuance and avoid starting with a loud volume right away.

Woman of FateHiroshi Oe

Among Hiroshi Oe’s songs, the one I especially recommend to women is Sadame no Onna.

Although this piece falls into the so-called “onna-uta” (women’s song) category, it leans more toward kayōkyoku than straight enka, so you won’t find the delicate, ornamented vibrato runs—driven by dramatic dynamics—that are typical of many onna-uta.

In fact, there’s only one clear instance of kobushi (traditional enka ornamentation) in the chorus, making it a fairly easy song to sing.

The range is somewhat wide, so I recommend carefully determining the most suitable key before performing.

It has come to goodbye.Chevon

It Became Goodbye / Chevon [Lyric Video]
It has come to goodbye, Chevon.

This track captivates from the first moment, with a delicate guitar arpeggio rising out of the silence and an intro that instantly seizes the listener’s heart.

Crafted by Chevon in March 2025, it explores the themes of farewell and renewal that lie hidden in the season of spring, delicately portraying nuanced emotions.

Beginning with a clear, transparent clean guitar and gradually layering in bass and drums, the arrangement evokes the beauty of spring’s arrival.

It expresses the shifts of the heart—from the urgency felt in everyday life and the longing for salvation, to the calm that leads to restful sleep—through a refreshing melody that gracefully distills spring’s dual nature.

The band’s refined musical sensibility shines in the meticulous arrangement and striking sound design, making this a perfect song for scenes like a quiet spring morning or an afternoon drive among dancing cherry blossoms.
