“Suirenka,” sung by Shonan no Kaze, is an extremely popular song that could be called one of their signature tracks.

I’d love for you to listen to it on a summer morning.

It blows away the sweltering heat in an instant and makes you want to head straight to the beach—a song with a dazzling, fiery vibe.

To Those Who Know the Blue of the Skyaimyon

A bittersweet youth love song filled with yearning.

Inspired by a film, Aimyon paints a track that conveys the ache of unrequited love alongside a faint glimmer of hope.

Released as a single in October 2019, it drew attention as the theme song for an animated movie of the same name.

The lyrics evoke a nostalgic look back at a love that has passed, gently wrapping you in feelings of heartache that everyone has experienced.

It’s perfect for high school students who want to listen while thinking of someone they like.

It’s great for quietly listening alone, and also for sharing with friends to reminisce about your youth.
