Released in 2018 as a digital-only single and used as the theme song for the TV drama “Good-Bye,” “Bad For Me” features a commanding brass section and a lively beat that really lifts the energy.

Since the melody includes passages that stay in a high register, if it doesn’t suit your vocal range, try adjusting the key on your karaoke machine.

A four-piece garage rock band formed in Ehime Prefecture in 2007.

Their trademark is a highly message-driven style that fuses an explosive, rock ’n’ roll-based sound with melodies and lyrics reminiscent of Japanese kayōkyoku.

At first, their music had a grunge feel evocative of Nirvana, but they gradually incorporated dance-rock elements and developed live shows that got the audience moving as one.

Although they unfortunately disbanded in 2019, they’re well worth a listen for fans of garage rock.

A pop electric tune that blends freshness with nostalgia.

PSYCHIC FEVER from EXILE TRIBE is a seven-member dance-vocal group.

Their track “BAKU BAKU,” as the title suggests, is an intense number that cranks up your excitement until your heart is pounding.

Instead of EDM-style kicks that hit on a steady rhythm, the song’s biggest draw is its dynamic low end that uses rests to create sharp contrasts.

The distinctive melody that rises by semitones, paired with this curious bass phrase, leaves a strong impression.

If you’re bored with standard dance-pop, this is a track you should definitely check out.
