Roller CoasterSIRUP, SUMIN & A.G.22rank/position

A collaborative work by SIRUP, SUMIN, and A.G.O, whose urban, sophisticated sound is the main draw.
The lyrics, which liken life’s uncertainty and emotional ups and downs to a roller coaster, are particularly striking.
Released in April 2024, it was used as the theme song for TV Tokyo’s drama “RoOT.” Classified as alternative R&B, the track seamlessly blends the distinct personalities of the three artists.
SUMIN’s refined beats and A.G.O’s production create a dark, solid atmosphere.
It’s a song we especially recommend to anyone feeling worn out by work or relationships.
UMAMISIRUP, The Crane & whoosh23rank/position

A globally inspired collaboration track, UMAMI, has been born from three talented artists: SIRUP, The Crane, and whoosh.
SIRUP is a singer-songwriter from Osaka known for his sophisticated sound and a vocal style that fluidly switches between singing and rapping.
After sessions with Taiwanese singer-songwriter/producer The Crane and rising Korean producer whoosh, this work came to life.
Centered on the theme of romance, it uses “umami” as a metaphor to express the subtle emotions that arise within a relationship.
The multilingual lyrics flow naturally, like a conversation between lovers.
The creative process—sharing meals, brainstorming ideas, and engaging with each other’s cultures—also adds a special essence that deepens the song’s appeal.
Let yourself sink into the comfortable groove; it’s perfect as a soundtrack for drives or laid-back weekends.
A fresh classic that embodies new connections made through music.
