A Seeker of MemoriesSumi
This is a labor-of-love work released by Sumi in April 2025 from Wing Japan, with lyrics by Ryuichi Satomura, music by Akihiro Otani, and arrangement by Yasuomi Suo.
Blending a dazzling melody with Sumi’s rich expressiveness, the piece evokes a cinematic sense of storytelling.

Oni childnecchi
The work released by necchi in April 2025 features an original sound that blends electronica and pop.
True to necchi’s roots in game music, you can enjoy shape-shifting sonic transitions.
The narrative quality of the lyrics, imbued with loneliness and solitude, is beautifully balanced with Murai’s clear, transparent vocals.
It leaves you unable to stop thinking about what lies ahead for the oni child.
ALL I WANTHirate Yurina
Yurina Hirate’s hit song “ALL I WANT.” Among her recent releases, this track has been a particularly big success, so I imagine many people discovered her solo work through this song.
The melody has a slightly Heisei-era feel, and the rap-like vocal parts especially evoke artists like Kana Nishino and Miliyah Kato from the 2010s.
Because there are relatively few rests, the breathing can be a bit tricky, but the range is low and the melodic movement is gentle, making it a song that’s definitely easy to score highly on.
Memories are beautifulAimer
It is a warm song that overflows with childhood memories and gratitude toward family.
Everyday moments with the father are depicted with delicate detail, creating a nostalgic afterglow while shaping a sound that resonates with everyone living in the present.
Aimer’s delicate, translucent voice vividly brings gentle memories to life, leaving a deep emotional impact on listeners.
Released in September 2018 as part of the triple A-side single “Black Bird / Tiny Dancers / Omoide wa Kirei de,” the song was included the following year on the album “Penny Rain.” It is a heartwarming masterpiece you’ll want to listen to when living away from family or when you feel like reflecting on memories of your hometown.

This is a lively song packed with energy to blow away the fatigue you feel at work or in everyday life.
It’s a collaboration between Kis-My-Ft2 and the comedy duo Sandwichman, featuring a catchy pop melody and lyrics brimming with humor that are sure to make you smile.
It expresses the power of the phrase “otsukaresama desu,” helping you overcome everyday little slip-ups with a grin.
Released early for streaming in April 2025, it’s included on the album “MAGFACT,” scheduled for release on May 21.
The music video is set in a Chinese restaurant, where the members of Kis-My-Ft2 in suits and Sandwichman deliver a fun, comical performance.
It’s the kind of song that will surely lift your spirits on your way home from work or when you’re feeling down after a mistake.
Tears of the OrphansMISIA
A supreme ballad woven from majestic strings and a bluesy melody.
MISIA’s expressive vocals, spanning five octaves, resonate deeply with the heart.
Released in November 2015, this song was chosen as the first cour ending theme for Season 1 of the popular anime Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans, marking MISIA’s first-ever anime tie-in.
The lyrics were written by MISIA herself, with composition and arrangement by Shiro Sagisu.
Infused with feelings born from her support activities in developing countries, the piece captivates with a sophisticated musicality that incorporates elements of jazz.
It’s a track you’ll want to play on a quiet night while lost in thought alone, or during special moments with someone dear.
Adult modePES 、BIM
This track, which brings together rappers from different generations, is a masterful fusion of PES’s melodious lightness and BIM’s refined, contemporary style.
The lyrics exude a mature allure, weaving in themes like everyday struggles and self-affirmation that resonate deeply with listeners.
