Akaikoen – Communication

It’s a single released in 2013.

It opens with a beautiful piano solo, but as you listen, a sense of comfort and unease arise at the same time, leaving you with a strangely mysterious feeling.

It evokes an image as if communicating with extraterrestrials.

It’s a masterpiece that symbolizes their pursuit of a free musical style.

Akai Koen – “Cider” Short Movie

Included on their second major full-length album, “Mouretsu Rhythmic,” released in 2014.

The phrase sung in the chorus as the song’s hook—“Cider!”—is refreshing and energetic, and it has a truly soda-like feel that’s irresistibly pleasant and addictive, making you want to hum it without thinking.

The track features meticulous, artistic touches throughout, such as a strong focus on aligning the beat with the harmonies and the subtle use of a recorder at low volume in the instrumental break.

Tokyoakai kouen

This song is included on the full album “Junjo Randoseru,” released on March 23, 2016.

Many artists have released songs titled “Tokyo,” but Akai Koen’s “Tokyo” is exceptional.

Singing about someone who leaves their hometown to strive in Tokyo, this song will serve as an anthem of encouragement for many people.

Super Happy Songakai kouen

This is the coupling song to the single “Koi to Uso,” released in 2017.

As the title suggests, it’s a track overflowing with a happy vibe, and its bouncy beat is addictive.

The lyrics also recall a cheer song, so it’s one you’ll want to listen to when you’re feeling tired.

Red Park 'Chameleon' Music Video

A song included on the 2017 album “Nesshō Summer.” It was written with a staff member in mind after experiencing several farewells that they didn’t want to part with, and it conveys a deep appreciation for the staff.

The repeated “ta-ta-ta” melody in the intro and interlude is bound to get stuck in your head.

semi-longakai kouen

This is a track from the 2017 album “Nesshō Summer.” With witty lyrics that intertwine hairstyles and romance, it carries a distinctly feminine perspective.

The keyboard sounds add a pop flair, so I hope you’ll pay attention to that as well.

Akai Koen – Imasara

This is a single released in 2013.

The verses and pre-chorus have a somewhat flighty, hollow feeling, but once the chorus hits, it shifts smoothly into a steady, bright melody, making great use of contrast.

In the music video, she walks on the grass in a skirt—there’s no way that doesn’t hurt.

The drummer wearing long pants is the smart one!
