I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Ayumi Sakai – Sorrow with Tenderness

Ayumi Sakai, who used to model for CanCam, released her debut single “Kanashimi o Itoshisa de” in February 2009.

It was chosen as the theme song for the 4th season of the drama “Tokumei Kakarichō Tadano Hitoshi.” The lyrics were written by Yasushi Akimoto.

Some of you may find this nostalgic.

Even back then it was striking, and her slightly mysterious, crystal-clear voice is absolutely lovely.

Among Ayumi Sakai’s works—which often empathize with women’s emotions—this debut track stands out as an exceptionally warm, embracing ballad.

Listening to it wraps you in a sense of comfort and puts you in a gentle mood.

Back then, smartphones hadn’t become widespread yet. Some of you might have downloaded songs as ringtones to your feature phones and listened to them that way. Even nostalgic tracks can feel fresh when you hear them again after a long time. Did you find any of your favorites?
