MoonlightKuwana Masahiro
Masahiro Kuwana has produced numerous classic songs.
In his younger days, his voice had a rock-tinged quality that exuded masculinity, and as his hair began to turn white, a richer, more mature timbre emerged.
Eventually, he captivated many fans as a quintessential low-voiced singer.
A track where you can fully savor that deep voice is Tsuki no Akari (Moonlight).
It’s a poignant song that portrays masculinity, and Kuwana’s low vocals match it exquisitely.

PumPum Shop （Prod by Gacha Medz）ZendaMan
Deejay ZendaMan from Iwate.
Under the guidance of his cheerful Jamaican mentor, Rockon, he experienced the real day-to-day life in Jamaica and finally returned to Japan this year.
Compared to before he moved there, his skills have skyrocketed, and he’s already attracting attention in the reggae scene.
Among his tracks, the one where you can especially savor his deep bass voice is PumPum Shop (Prod by Gacha Medz).
It’s authentic reggae with a sophisticated sound and flow that can stand up on the world stage.
Please, once more…Takahashi Eiichi
This is the second single by Eiichi Takahashi, an enka singer from Shiga Prefecture, released on February 6, 2018.
Although Eiichi Takahashi isn’t very well-known yet, he’s a singer with a wonderfully rich, deep voice.
You could even call it a truly mature, seasoned vocal tone.
Also, I’m actually the one who handled the composition, arrangement, and production of this track.
When creating this song, my top priority was to compose it in a way that would let listeners fully appreciate Takahashi’s captivating low register.
As a result, he told me, “The lowest notes in the melody are way too low!!” Still, don’t you think the A melody section in particular really lets you enjoy the charm of his deep voice? It’s a track I’d love for anyone who enjoys a richly flavored male low register to listen to.
RunawayShaneruzu
Released on February 25, 1980 as the debut single of Chanels (later Rats & Star).
Chanels drew attention for debuting with their faces painted black to resemble a Black vocal group, and the song itself is packed with an oldies-style, so-called Black taste.
The title call that drops in like a backing shout lets you enjoy a very strikingly deep voice.
If you’re in your mid-40s or older as of 2022, I bet quite a few of you have tried imitating that low-pitched title call when singing along, right? (lol)
B1ID
ID is arguably the most musically gifted rapper in Japan.
Because he competes in battles, that might not be the image you have of him, but the quality of his tracks is high enough to hold its own not just in Japan, but on the world stage.
A beloved classic among hardcore heads—and often considered his masterpiece—is B1.
It’s a signature track from his self-titled debut album, delivering a genre-defying take on hip-hop.
The bass-driven rap flow is breathtaking, so be sure to check it out.
dearestFukuyama Masaharu
This song is included on Masaharu Fukuyama’s 10th original album, “Zankyo,” which was released in June 2009.
It’s a self-cover of a track he originally provided to KOH+.
Now, Fukuyama—well known for his beautifully rich low register that fully utilizes the chest voice, the resonance of the chest cavity—seems to shine most in slow ballads like this one.
The gentle falsetto used in the high notes of the chorus contrasts nicely with his low tones, making the song even more dramatic.
It’s also an ideal reference track for anyone aiming to become a compelling low-voice singer.
