Songs by male artists known for their captivating deep voices. Classic Japanese hits and recommended popular tracks.

These days, male vocalists with high tones are especially popular, and it feels like we hear fewer songs sung with deep, rugged low voices.

Still, that resonant low register that echoes to the core is something many men aspire to, and I suspect plenty of women also find themselves saying, “I get chills from a smoky, masculine singing voice!”

When a male artist known for his striking low notes sings from a woman’s perspective, it can actually highlight feminine allure and sound even more captivating.

This time, we’ve gathered classic tracks by male artists whose irresistibly rich low vocals steal the show.

Go ahead and lose yourself in these stylish, moody low voices.

Nocturne Under the MoonMALICE MIZER

This is MALICE MIZER’s third major-label single, released on February 11, 1998.

It was used as the ending theme for the TBS TV show “Egawa no Shokutaku.” Gackt’s vocals on this track set it clearly apart from typical visual kei bands, thanks to his rich, low register filled with overtones.

The contrast with the slightly delicate falsetto high notes creates a superb match between the song’s worldview and the vocal performance, making it a standout piece.

Sora Tomonari’s new song “Bergamot.” When it comes to Sora Tomonari, their vocals are known for focusing on the lower register, but this track is centered around the low-mid to mid range.

Falsetto appears in the chorus, but since it tends to use falsetto for notes that could be sung in chest voice, even men with lower voices can handle it without issue.

The occasional low-register parts are the biggest highlight, so aim for a rich, full vocal tone there.

After appearing on The X Factor, singer Takuji Yamamoto energized the R&B scene for a while.

He now performs mainly as a street musician under the name Emoh Les.

His defining traits are, above all, a truly outstanding vocal ability that would rank among the top five in Japan, and a rich, resonant low register that holds its own alongside Black R&B singers.

In “Asia no Kibou” (“Hope of Asia”), you can revel in his warm, full-bodied low voice.

His vocal skills are phenomenal, so be sure to check him out.

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.

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.
