fuckMòwěi
A dynamic and impactful track by Matomo.
Released in January 2025, this piece features KAITO’s strikingly dark vocals.
The heavy, electronic sound blends with lyrics laced with social satire, stirring listeners to the core.
The MV’s KAITO, styled like the King of Hell (Enma), is another highlight.
It’s an addictive song that makes you want to crank up the volume!
Hometown, Northern Country, Lullabysawada yoshihito
Mr.
Yoshihito Sawada, from Rokkasho Village in Kamikita District, Aomori Prefecture, is a versatile artist active both as an enka singer and a Tsugaru shamisen player.
After winning the nationwide folk song competition sponsored by Nippon Columbia in 1995, he made his debut in 2014 with his first single, “Janomegasa.” He has drawn attention for his distinctive enka style that makes use of his Tsugaru shamisen technique.
In July 2024, he released “Furusato, Kitaguni, Komoriuta” (Hometown, Northern Land, Lullaby).
The title track, composed by Kaoru Ito, is characterized by a wistful melody and warm lyrics.
Mr.
Sawada continues to pursue a new musicality that fuses enka with Tsugaru shamisen.
Highly recommended for those interested in traditional Japanese music.
Funny Insipid Candy VendorNiru Kajitsu
“Funny Insipid Candy Vendor” is a song by Nirukajitsu, included on the album “MWLÁND” released in November 2024, with its music video published in December.
It’s a duet by flower and Nirukajitsu, featuring an addictive melody line and lyrics woven with sharp critiques of modern society.
Its distinctive sound arrangement—rock-based while incorporating diverse genres—showcases Nirukajitsu’s style in full.
Be sure to give it a careful listen!
Kazahana CapeIshihara Junko
Ms.
Junko Ishihara, who once drew public attention as an enka idol, has lately gained a mature presence and has been releasing many refined, deep-toned songs.
Among them, the one I especially recommend is Kazahana Misaki.
While it can be classified as enka due to its melodic line and kobushi ornamentation, its structure is very close to kayōkyoku, so even those who aren’t fond of enka can sing it.
The vocal range is narrow, and there aren’t any particularly complex pitch shifts, making it arguably an ideal warm-up piece.
Forever YoungTakehara Pisutoru
Takihara Pistol’s classic “Forever Young,” released as the ending theme for TV Tokyo’s drama “Byplayers: What if 6 Famous Supporting Actors Lived Together?,” is memorable for its moving lyrics themed around “who we were back then” and its straightforward yet somewhat wistful melody.
The song is also easy to sing, with no particularly challenging parts aside from the long note before the chorus.
That said, it does call for power, so it’s recommended for people with a rich or slightly raspy voice.
FragranceMahiru
A heartrending song by Mahiru that portrays the feelings of a woman who can’t help but sense the presence of her former lover in the lingering scent of a borrowed perfume.
Delicately woven words capture how memories stirred by fragrance toss her about, leaving her heart aching with feelings she still can’t let go of.
Co-created with RINZO and released in December 2023, the piece gained support as a ballad that comforts many who have experienced heartbreak.
It’s a song that stands by those who, in everyday moments, are suddenly reminded of someone precious by a passing scent, bringing empathy to such bittersweet instants.

Starting with her debut song “Shiroi Sunadokei,” she has released a series of tracks that resonate with listeners through her warm vocals, including “Kanpai-zake” and “Senmō Honsen.” In 2019, she marked her 10th anniversary with a commemorative dinner show and has continued to work energetically.
In September 2023, she released new songs “Meoto-bana” and “Echigo-sen.” Incorporating waltz rhythms and drawing on her Niigata roots, her broad expressive range extends beyond the conventional bounds of enka.
She also travels the country by car to bring her music to audiences, captivating many fans with her friendly personality and charming smile.
