Ottottrio is a special project that brought together three Japanese fusion guitarists the country proudly presents to the world.

In 1988, virtuoso guitarists Issei Noro, Masahiro Andoh, and Hirokuni Korekata joined forces, shaking the music scene with a barrage of dazzling technique and meticulously crafted ensemble work.

Their overwhelming performances on the live albums “Super Guitar Session: Hot Live” and “Super Guitar Session: Red Live” continue to captivate fusion fans.

In 1998, they released the studio album “Triptych,” breaking new ground with more refined compositions and arrangements.

Each member boasts an illustrious career with groups like Casiopea and T-Square, attesting to their proven ability.

Blending jazz and rock, their music is recommended not only for listeners who enjoy technical playing but also for anyone who gets excited by energetic sounds.

Mother-longing SakeFukuda Kouhei

This song, included as a coupling track on the special edition of the 2018 hit classic “Tenryū Nagashi,” drew attention for being newly written by Ikuzo Yoshi.

Titled “Hahakoi-zake,” it’s a masterpiece that showcases Kohei Fukuda’s outstanding vocal ability as he brilliantly delivers a melody steeped in Yoshi’s signature style.

That said, the melodic development—sustained long tones that shift from the mid range to the high range—is honestly challenging.

On the flip side, if you’re accustomed to singing melodies composed by Ikuzo Yoshi, you shouldn’t find it confusing, and since the song’s tempo is on the slower side, there are reasonably good moments to take proper breaths.

Savor your feelings for your mother and sing it with all your heart.

Why not me?Misaka Saki

Saki Misaka – Isn’t It Fine If It’s Me (Full ver.)
Why not me?Misaka Saki

This song by Saki Misaka portrays the bittersweet feelings of gradually falling in love, even though you thought you were content just staying close as a friend.

With a clear, gentle voice, she expresses the conflict of wishing for the other person’s happiness while not wanting to see them with someone else.

Released digitally in February 2021, the track was also chosen as the theme song for ABEMA’s romantic reality show “Kyo, Suki ni Narimashita.” It’s sure to resonate with those who, despite knowing what would bring happiness, can’t let go, and who sense the other person’s feelings yet can’t bring themselves to speak up.

Double Suicide of OblivionOPA

This MEIKO track with its gritty, noisy vocals is insanely cool.

It’s a song by OPA, a Vocaloid producer who’s also active as a professional composer, released in 2007.

The fast-paced hard rock sound is electrifying—the crisp, cutting guitar phrases are irresistible.

The lyrics, which reflect on the human tendency to eventually forget even the biggest events, have a philosophical edge.

Energetic yet somehow bittersweet, it’s one of those unforgettable songs that pierce the heart.

My voice175R

Starting with an intro whose melody seems to dissolve a faint sense of loneliness, this is “My Voice.” It’s included on “STAND BY YOU!!,” a collaborative single with the ska-punk band SHAKALABBITS, released in 2002 when we were running through the same era together.

The shift from the A-melody, driven by a ska rhythm, to the impassioned chorus is truly stirring.

The lyrics, which record days gone by, tighten your chest.

Try listening to it while overlaying it with your own youth.
