The classic song ONE DAY by Arash, an Iranian-born music producer now based in Sweden, and Helena Josefsson, the vocalist of the Sweden-based band Sandy Mouche.

Adele is a British female singer-songwriter with a distinctive vocal style who’s active at the forefront of the music scene.

I think many people in Japan are familiar with her.

All of her songs are cool, but “Oh My God” in particular has an especially striking vibe.

Because her accent—known as Cockney—is quite strong, the pronunciation can be pretty challenging, but if you can master singing it, it’s a powerful song.

African Head Charge has continued to win support from music fans around the world—not just dub and reggae listeners—for its primitive yet artistic sonic imagery.

Their 1986 release Off the Beaten Track brilliantly realized the concept of “psychedelic Africa” proposed by Brian Eno, thanks to the genius of Adrian Sherwood—who also founded the label On-U Sound that released the album.

The mysterious dance music created through a fusion of sampling and live instruments has been reissued multiple times, and even well into the 2020s it keeps spinning on dance floors worldwide, moving and compelling people to dance.
