SquallMatsumoto Eiko

"Squall" ~Eiko Matsumoto × Satoshi Takebe Special Session #1~ @ TAGO STUDIO
SquallMatsumoto Eiko

A love song from a woman’s perspective that captures the fresh thrill of romance, like the beautiful sky after a passing shower.

It’s a gem of a ballad where a warm, relatable poetic world of bittersweet feelings blends perfectly with a gentle, translucent melody.

Eiko Matsumoto’s vibrant voice vividly conveys the delicate emotions of a woman falling in love.

Released in September 1999, the song drew attention as an insert track for the Fuji TV drama “Perfect Love!” starring Masaharu Fukuyama, reaching No.

7 on the Oricon charts and selling 400,000 copies.

It was also included on the album “From The First Touch” and is known for Masaharu Fukuyama’s self-cover.

The work “Hitorigoto,” a collaboration between popular singer-songwriter Motohiro Hata and Naoki Matayoshi, winner of the Akutagawa Prize.

In this piece, Matayoshi wrote the lyrics and Hata composed the melody, resulting in a captivating blend of exceptionally deep literary expression—rare in mainstream Japanese music—and a delicate melody.

Throughout, the vocal line is simply structured with no sudden leaps in pitch.

In addition, the overall range is on the narrower side, making it a very singable song for teenage males with lower voices.

Singer-songwriter Mao Sasagawa, recognized even by Tatsuya Kitani, originally worked as a Vocaloid producer under the name mao sasagawa and is known for exceptional composition skills.

Among Sasagawa’s songs, the one I especially recommend is “Therefore, It’s Scorched.” While distinctive, it has a very narrow vocal range and gentle melodic contour, making it perfect for aiming for a 100-point score.

Riding the sound so hard it hurtsSugaya Ayume

A newcomer artist whose breathy vocals and catchy sound are rapidly gaining momentum, Yua Sugaya.

He already has a few hit tunes under his belt, but the one I especially recommend is “Ride the Sound Till It Hurts.” It’s a bright, upbeat track, yet surprisingly the vocal line’s pitch movement is gentle, and the long tones aren’t all that long.

If you track the pitch accurately, it’s a song where you can easily aim for a perfect score.

Aile The Shota, a highly skilled artist recognized by SKY-HI, is known for his style that skillfully blends R&B and other forms of Black music into pop, earning strong popularity especially among young women.

Among his songs, the one I particularly recommend is SAKURA (Prod.

Taka Perry).

While it features a stylish melody, the R&B elements are relatively light, so you won’t encounter advanced vocal techniques like melisma or other embellishments.

There are no parts that require belting either, making it a song you can handle well with just solid basic technique.

Fusee is a band gaining popularity for lyrics that portray real, human psychology.

Their powerful melodies are also a draw, and they’re steadily building recognition in the Japanese rock scene.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is Oden no Uta.

Despite the unique title, the melody and lyrics are straightforward.

The melody in particular features an emotionally charged vocal line, yet the surprising thing is that the range is relatively narrow, so even men with lower voices can sing it comfortably.

KANA-BOON is a band that continues to produce many great songs even now.

Lately, they’ve been bringing a playful spirit into their sound, with a freewheeling musicality reminiscent of the old Unicorn—one of their big appeals.

Among KANA-BOON’s tracks, the one I especially recommend is their new song, “Horarara.” It might seem a bit high, but in reality the range isn’t that wide.

The vocal line is simple, but if you don’t breathe properly, you might run out of steam during the chorus, so just watch out for that.
