You’ll be drawn into its dramatic, tension-filled tone.

Created by ptt and sio rin, who produce songs based on world historical events, the piece was released in June 2024.

The song takes Germany as its motif, and the world it depicts through its lyrics reflects the history of wars that occurred in the past.

If you study world history—such as the formation of Germany and World War I and II—before listening, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of what the song conveys.

Ziproom is a hip-hop collective based in Kobe.

The duo of Arich and Shimon has been drawing attention with a distinctive sound that deftly blends hip-hop, electro, and dance music.

They made their debut in January 2024 with the EP “unzip,” achieving the remarkable feat of entering Spotify’s Viral Top 50 charts in five countries, including Japan.

For mastering, they enlisted Stuart Hawkes—who has worked with global stars like Ed Sheeran and Charli XCX—earning acclaim for their polished sonic production.

In October 2024, they held release parties in Tokyo and Osaka, both of which sold out.

They were also selected by Spotify as next-generation artists to watch in 2025, steadily raising their profile in the scene.

With strong support from around the world, particularly on social media, their music is a must-listen that brings a fresh breeze to contemporary pop.

Someone To You / flower (Dare Demo Nai / flower)
nobodyΔ

How about a jazz number with a downbeat vibe? It’s a track by Δ, a Vocaloid producer also known as the creator of “You’re Not Wrong,” released in 2018.

From the piano timbre that sounds like the keys are being struck hard to the rough, distorted sonic image, it’s incredibly cool.

The lyrics feel as if they directly portray the protagonist’s turmoil over their own existence.

It’s a highly addictive work that stands apart from mainstream jazz.

Darwin’s Eggaburadako

Aburadako is a Japanese rock band formed in 1983.

Unusually for musicians, all members have regular day jobs in addition to performing, so their activities were irregular.

Combining diverse musical elements—progressive rock, scum, gagaku, ambient/environmental music, and contemporary music—the band had a peculiar charm, but they have been on hiatus since 2009.

Ikimono-gakari “Someone” (Theme song for ‘A Song of Hope Woven by Newspapers’) | Original Movie
someoneikimonogakari

This is a song by Ikimono-gakari released in October 2023 as the theme song for a newspaper advertising campaign.

It’s a pop track that conveys warmth and strength, carrying a message of hope and empathy.

The lyrics, which portray people striving to overcome loneliness and sorrow, resonate deeply.

An original short film depicting everyday scenes was also produced, featuring comedian Hiroshi Tamura of Kirin and actress Kokona Sumi.

The song is included on the album “Maru (〇),” released in December 2023.

It envelops you with a gentle kindness that stays close to your pain and quietly gives you a push forward.

Dango Three Brothersokaasan to issho

There’s an autumn event called the Harvest Moon (Jugoya), right? In connection with that, I’d like to introduce the song Dango 3 Brothers, which is about dango, a food essential for Jugoya.

It was aired on the children’s program Okaasan to Issho, and features charming characters that look like dango.

As the title suggests, the song depicts a trio of dango siblings.

It’s amusing for how it packs in comical, dango-specific details—like how they get hard if left out.

It’s a great pick if you’re looking for a song that will make you laugh.
