Songs I'd like to listen to while camping: Jazzy BGM (11–20)
All of MeTammy Renee’
When it comes to the most satisfying moment in camping, isn’t it when you’ve just finished setting up your base? The more serious the base, the greater the sense of accomplishment when it’s done.
I imagine many people want to admire the base they’ve built while listening to some lively music at that moment.
For those people, I recommend the song “All of Me.” It’s a standard jazz piece, much like popular music, with an overall bright and festive melody.
The Look Of LoveUA × Kikuchi Naruyoshi
“The Look Of Love,” created by singer UA—known for her soulful vocals that embrace a wide range of genres—and jazz musician Naruyoshi Kikuchi, who has composed numerous film and TV soundtracks.
The track features aggressive performances on saxophone and piano.
You’ll also find comfort in UA’s sultry, mature vocal allure.
It’s a jazzy number that blends strength with suppleness.
If you’re looking for background music for cooking at a campsite or gathering around a campfire, be sure to give it a listen.
Cold PassionNaka-tsuka Takeshi
Sound creator Takeshi Nakatsuka, hailing from Kanagawa Prefecture, has written and arranged songs for numerous major artists, including Masayuki Suzuki, Yuki Koyanagi, and AAA.
Among his works, a track especially recommended for camping is ‘Tsumetai Jōnetsu’ (‘Cold Passion’).
It showcases Nakatsuka’s side as a vocalist, with a languid vocal delivery and dazzling instrumentation that leave a strong impression.
It’s an upbeat tune, perfect as drive music on your way to the campsite.

bird.” It’s included on Speak Own Words, released in 2012 by jazz pianist Yusuke Hirado, leader of the jazz quartet quasimode.
Alongside supple piano tones, bird’s beautiful vocals shine.
With its melodic sound, it’s a great recommendation even for newcomers to jazz.
Try playing it during the quiet hours from evening into night.
Blues of DeceptionHamada Maron
Vocalist Maron Hamada, originally from Osaka Prefecture, is known for her distinctive style that blends Showa-era kayōkyoku with jazz, and she has a strong cult following.
Among her works, the song that’s especially perfect for camping is Mayakashi no Blues.
It beautifully marries the essence of Showa pop, one of her trademarks, with the vibrant flair of swing jazz.
It’s an energetic track—why not give it a listen while you’re setting up your base camp?
comrade feat. Daichi MiuraSOIL&”PIMP”SESSIONS
The song I’d like you to listen to for a slow, relaxing night at camp is “comrade feat.
Daichi Miura.” It’s included on DAPPER, the album released in 2018 by SOIL&”PIMP”SESSIONS, an instrumental jazz band expanding their reach overseas.
The softly jazzy synth tones will bring you peace.
It’s a deep track that lets you savor Daichi Miura’s emotional vocals.
Why not give it a listen while lighting a small flame in your lantern?
