This is “Hitsuji-ya-san,” made for Karaoke DAM’s “Ima Dake Clip.” It’s a song characterized by a peculiar melody.

Many of you are probably wondering, “What on earth is a hitsuji-ya-san?” but since the lyrics say “put me to sleep,” you can just barely make sense of it.

It also feels like the song skillfully expresses the unpleasant sensations you get when you’re sleepy after pulling an all-nighter.

This is a track included on the 2012 album “Innocence in the Laundry.” I find the beat in the chorus—where the sense of speed suddenly stops—very interesting.

By the way, the sound of the Caribbean instrument, the steelpan, appears in the intro.

A song included on the 2017 album “Nesshō Summer.” It was written with a staff member in mind after experiencing several farewells that they didn’t want to part with, and it conveys a deep appreciation for the staff.

The repeated “ta-ta-ta” melody in the intro and interlude is bound to get stuck in your head.

Number Sixakai kouen24rank/position

This is a track included on the 2012 album “Laundry de Ketsubaku” (Innocence in the Laundry).

At first it might seem like an easy-to-listen pop melody, but there’s an unstable, peculiar atmosphere drifting through it that conveys the band’s distinctive musicality.

The songs of the four-piece rock band Akai Ko-en are born from a distinctive songwriting process: guitarist Yosaki Tsuuno creates demos that incorporate elements of classical and contemporary music, which the entire band then elevates into a catchy rock sound.

This track, included on their fourth album Netsushou Summer released in August 2017, was also used as the ending theme for the TBS information program Ousama no Brunch.

Its lyrics, linking words together like a shiritori game, are memorable, and the subtly budding feelings of love, depicted from a woman’s perspective, create a unique world.

Though the melody is tinged with sadness, the girl’s emotions are expressed adorably, making it a song you’ll want to listen to alone on a summer night.

Laundryakai kouen26rank/position

This is a song included on their major-label debut mini album, “Bleaching in the Laundry.” It evokes a relaxed, spacious atmosphere.

By layering playing that borders on dissonance over a beautiful melody, they create a unique worldview.

Their refined musical sensibility can be felt in this track as well.

This is the tenth track on the 2012 album “Laundry de ketsujō o” (Proving Innocence in the Laundry).

At first listen it sounds like a typical piano ballad, but you can sense Akai Koen’s distinctiveness here and there.

For example, the piano in the intro deviates slightly from standard chord progressions, showcasing Akai Koen’s knack for doing things their own way.

A rock band formed in 2010 in a high school light music club.

In the beginning, they covered popular bands, but later they started creating original songs.

In recent years, they have been garnering significant attention, with the editor-in-chief of a well-known music magazine highly praising their songwriting, composition, performance skills, and originality.

The Last Flowerakai kouen29rank/position

A track included on their fourth album, “Nesshō Summer.” It’s a song by Akai Koen that expresses feelings for a loved one by wishing to become “the last flower.” They’re a band with a distinctive way of expression, and one of their charms is lyrics that really pierce the heart.

A track included on Akai Koen’s album “Mouretsu Rhythmic,” released in October 2019.

Using nature and illness as motifs, it poetically depicts human fragility and growth.

It features a distinctive sound that incorporates elements of classical and contemporary music, with experiments that defy pop and rock conventions, such as dissonance and counter-melodies.

Imbued with Yosaki Tsuno’s desire to “remain infinitely free,” the piece invites listeners to their own interpretations, which is part of its appeal.

The album “Mouretsu Rhythmic” won the Excellence Album Award at the 56th Japan Record Awards.

It’s a perfect song for those who value staying true to themselves!
