Evening Calm AnthologyKurenazumu
Formed in 2018 and based in Fukuoka City, Crenazm crafts a compelling sound influenced by shoegaze and dream pop—genres that layer warped tones to conjure mysterious sonic spaces.
It’s a style not often heard among Japanese artists.
Shortly after they began, they proved their talent with appearances such as at the Ringo Music Festival.
Their song “Hitori Nokorazu Niramitsukete” was chosen as the ending theme for Fuji TV’s “Love music,” and “Ashita ni wa Furimuite yo” was used as the ending theme for “Mezamashi 8.” They might just be the most hotly anticipated band in the music scene right now!
YOUKobukuro
“YOU” is filled with love for someone special.
It was released in 2001 as a double A-side single along with “miss you.” Because it has a shuffle rhythm, you might find the timing a bit tricky at first, but if you listen closely to the original and lock into the groove, you’ll be able to sing it joyfully with no problem.
Even if the rhythm feels challenging, the melody itself is easy to remember and sing.
The key isn’t very high either, so if you’re comfortable with higher notes you can sing it in the original key, and if you have a lower voice, lowering it by one or two semitones will make it easier to sing.
YOUSouthern All Stars
In addition to the familiar Haruka Ayase, the UNIQLO “Kando Pants” commercial also features Soma Santoki.
The story has Santoki arriving at Ayase’s workplace as a highly capable intern, and she’s impressed by his vibe and vitality.
The ad highlights that the Kando Pants worn by both Santoki and Ayase look sharp yet allow for easy movement.
The background music is Southern All Stars’ “YOU.” The song, included on their 1990 album “Southern All Stars,” is notable for its poignant lyrics that depict lingering feelings for a woman who has left the narrator behind.
Snowy TownShiromoon
“Yuki no Furu Machi o” resonates with phrases that feel like wishes under the winter night sky.
Created in 2021 by Shiromoon, a Vocaloid producer who also makes instrumentals, the song begins with acoustic guitar and vocals, then transforms at the chorus into a dreamy sound where all the instruments melt together.
Yuki Kaai’s clear, transparent voice matches the gentle melodic line perfectly.
It’s a warm winter song that offers soothing comfort before you slip into bed.
You May DreamSHEENA&THE ROKKETS
Sheena & The Rokkets is a Japanese rock ’n’ roll band formed after moving from Fukuoka to Tokyo in 1978.
Sheena’s shouts ignite Makoto Ayukawa’s guitar.
They released their debut single Tears on the Highway, and in 1979 put out their second album Vacuum Pack.
The single You May Dream from that album was used in a Japan Airlines commercial, which sparked their breakthrough.
Influenced by foreign rock, they are known for performing both original songs and covers of great artists.
Sheena’s distinctive vocal phrasing and performance are key elements that breathe life into Ayukawa’s guitar playing.
With energetic live shows, they deliver the true spirit of rock ’n’ roll.

Produced by Haruomi Hosono, its distinctive sound carries shades of Yellow Magic Orchestra’s essence.
Sheena’s unique vocals pair perfectly with Makoto Ayukawa’s guitar.
The lyrics, depicting the feelings of a girl in love with love, weave dreamlike scenes that resonate deeply.
It’s a recommended track for when you want to sink into a romantic mood.
