mild daysHitsuji Bungaku

Hitsujibungaku is a three-piece female band, and it seems that vocalist Moeka Shiozuka mainly writes the lyrics and composes.
The new song “mild days” also features beautifully tight harmonies! What seems like the B section might actually be the chorus, but from there she sings an octave higher, layering softly, and the atmosphere shifts all at once.
She also sings upper harmonies while taking the line an octave up, so at first you might not notice and end up singing the whole thing an octave higher.
But if you practice carefully while listening closely to the vocals, you’ll pick up the knack quickly! The song is also on the shorter side at about three minutes, and the repeating melody makes it easy to memorize.
From the suite MATSURI “NIPPON”Hakasé Tarō

It’s a passionate, large-scale piece where the timbres of the shakuhachi and shamisen blend with a grand orchestra.
The way it builds heat from quiet passages is like a Japanese festival shifting from a solemn ritual to a lively celebration.
Just listening makes your heart naturally dance and your spirit soar.
This track is included on Taro Hakase’s album “JAPONISM,” released in August 2013, and was also selected as a campaign song by Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and the Japan Tourism Agency, helping to showcase the appeal of Japan.
It might be perfect when you want to get fired up and dive into something, or when you want to refresh your mood with expansive music.
MY HONEYBOØWY

A BOØWY track that grabs your heart with a buoyant shuffle beat.
The lyrics, which sing of a bashful, bittersweet crush, pair exquisitely with Kyosuke Himuro’s sensual vocals.
Featured on the album “INSTANT LOVE,” released in September 1983, the song later reappeared as a single in April 1988, just before the band’s breakup—making it a deeply cherished work for fans.
There’s also an intriguing anecdote that when it was first performed live, the lyrics were unfinished, offering a glimpse into their creative process.
MINEHOKUTO

A chill love song that straightforwardly sings about being in love.
Released in June 2025 under HOKUTO, the solo project of Hokuto Yoshino, vocalist of THE RAMPAGE.
Like a love letter to someone special, it expresses a single-minded feeling that “there’s no one else like you.” With R&B sounds and vocals that linger pleasantly in your ears, it fills your heart with the sweet pangs of young love.
Why not listen while thinking of someone important to you?
matchIwa Misaki

If you want to immerse yourself in the world of contemporary enka, how about this one song? It’s a track by Misaki Iwasa, an enka singer who got her start in AKB48.
It was released in August 2024 as her 11th single.
The lyrics are achingly bittersweet, likening a fading flame of love to the flicker of a match swaying in a nighttime snack bar.
If you fully inhabit the protagonist and sing with rich emotion, I think it will resonate deeply with listeners.
At the whim of ManiMatsuzaka Yuuki

A very stylish number that fuses the chic world of enka with pop.
It’s a song by Yuki Matsuzaka, released in June 2024 as his ninth single.
This work is an enka-kayō piece characterized by a light, jazz club–like sound.
The lyrics portray the bittersweet feelings of a heart swayed by love, drawing you right into its world.
Sing it at karaoke and nail it in style!
No way!/Not a chance!Jinno Mika

This is a cool song that exudes strength and faces forward without hesitation! It’s a track by Mika Shinno, who thrives beyond the boundaries of enka, and it’s set to be released as a single in May 2025.
Her soul-stirring vocals are irresistible.
Singing about the resolve to carve out the future on one’s own two feet, this piece gives you a boost just by listening.
Perfect for belting out at karaoke when you want to feel refreshed, or when you want to liven up the mood by showing a different side of yourself!
