Samurai of oldElefanto Kashimashi
This is a song that stands out for its distinctly Japanese sense of melancholy and lyricism, delving deeply into the samurai spirit.
Included on the 1997 album “Hashire Asu ni Mukatte – Tsukiyo no Uta -,” it strongly reflects Elephant Kashimashi’s unique musical style.
Highlighted by Hiroji Miyamoto’s emotionally rich vocals, the piece blends elements of rock and ballad with exquisite balance.
While portraying the rigor and resolve of the samurai, its profound lyrics also evoke a sense of mourning for what is being lost to the passage of time.
It’s a recommended track for those who, feeling the chill of autumn, want to reflect on life and how to live it.
MusashinoElefanto Kashimashi
Included on the album “good morning,” released on April 26, 2000.
A work that simply and calmly sings about everyday life in Tokyo, creating a different atmosphere from the other tracks on the album.
Using Musashino—a specific place—as the title, the song expresses the artist’s feelings just as they are, unadorned.
Squeeze and snuggle upKapibara-san to Mayumiinu
There are quite a few zoos that provide capybaras with the ultimate pampering hot springs that make you think, “I want to be a capybara too!” It’s hard not to envy them as they soak leisurely in yuzu baths and sit perfectly still in the water.
Their expressions don’t show much, but they must feel amazing, right?
MoonthiefKitanitatsuya
A song by Tatsuya Kitani that portrays someone trying to find their true self in the quiet, even while carrying loneliness and inner conflict.
Included on the album ROUNDABOUT, it was pre-released with a music video in November 2023 and resonated with many listeners.
Kitani, also a member of sajou no hana, brings a delicate voice and a uniquely crafted lyrical world—perfect for moments when you want to face yourself while gazing at the night sky.
Listen under the moonlight, and it’s sure to sink into your heart.
It’s also recommended for times when you want to reflect deeply on the meaning of life.
Innocent SeasonGesu no Kiwami Otome.
This is a song whose wistful vocals evoke the arrival of autumn and resonate deeply in the heart.
Gesu no Kiwami Otome.’s music is characterized by pop melodies rooted in jazz, prog, and hip-hop, and this work is no exception.
It skillfully expresses the bittersweetness at summer’s end and the loneliness one experiences in life.
Released in October 2015 as a double A-side single, it became the band’s fourth single.
The music video was created in collaboration with Nobumi Fukui, the “love-struck painter.” Its driving sound and distinctive worldview are compelling.
It’s the perfect track for those who want to look back on summer memories while quietly nurturing anticipation for a new season.
Musical Magical SyndromeTakenoko shōnen
This is the 65th track by Vocaloid producer Takenoko Shounen, who has a wide-ranging style and has released many works since his 2015 debut.
It’s a rock number that instantly ramps up the excitement with a chorus-first structure and a groove driven by ear-catching guitar cutting that boosts your energy.
After a refreshing chorus featuring a catchy melody and a brisk off-beat rhythm, the song suddenly shifts in tone—an arrangement that’s quintessential Takenoko Shounen.
Be sure to listen to the very end!
