together; along with; bothWANIMA
A song whose exhilarating guitar sound and powerful message strike a chord.
WANIMA, a rock band based in Kumamoto, released it in August 2016 as the commercial song for NIVEA Kao’s “8×4.” Set to a driving, fast-paced melody, it expresses the strength to overcome adversity and gratitude for the encounters along the way, resulting in a track that brims with positivity.
Listening to it first thing in the morning is sure to energize you for the day ahead.
It’s a gentle, encouraging anthem that gives you a push at major turning points in life or when you’re about to take on a new challenge.
BIRTHDAYkururi
This track is defined by its comfortable guitar sound.
The gentle resonance of the acoustic guitar makes it perfect as background music while you work.
Simple yet memorable, its riff is one almost everyone has heard at least once.
The stylish, powerful electric guitar parts add a dynamic accent to the flow of your day.
Released in February 2005, it was included on Quruli’s sixth album, “NIKKI.” The lyrics are striking for the way they depict small everyday moments and feelings, expressing the beauty of cherished memories in life.
They sing about the special feelings that come with each new morning and the bonds with those we hold dear.
It’s a must-listen not only for guitar lovers, but for anyone who wants to spend the day in a calm, relaxed mood.
Beyond the Night SkySuga Shikao
There’s also a version sung by SMAP, but personally I prefer this one by the husky-voiced Shikao Suga, whose voice seems to melt into the night sky.
I think the arpeggiated guitar phrases and tones perfectly match the nighttime atmosphere.

A Little Night MusicWolfgang Amadeus Mozart
The creator of this masterpiece, whose gentle and graceful melody sinks into the heart, is the genius composer Mozart.
Evoking a nocturnal scene with a serene atmosphere, this work harmoniously blends light, approachable themes and was completed in Vienna in August 1787.
Consisting of four movements—from the bright and festive first movement, to the second that exudes the quiet of night, the dance-like third, and the lively fourth—it gently envelops the listener.
It is also used as the departure melody at Tobu Tojo Line Ikebukuro Station, making it a familiar tune in everyday life.
It’s a perfect piece when you want to enhance concentration or calm the mind.
In-store BGM
Valor, whose company name originates from the English word meaning “the brave,” has been gaining popularity for its extensive lineup of private brand products.
The in-store BGM features this track, distinguished by a uniquely nostalgic electronic organ tone.
Paired with a rhythmic drum performance, it lifts your shopping mood.
It’s the kind of song that makes you want to browse the store with a bright outlook, even when you’re wondering, “What should I make for dinner today?” We also recommend enjoying your shopping to its buoyant, uplifting melody.
