Etude-Tableaux, Op. 39 No. 2 in A minor “The Sea and the Seagull”Sergei Rachmaninov

Let me introduce a piano piece that sinks deeply into the heart—perfect for summer.

It’s one of the Études-Tableaux Sergei Rachmaninoff composed between 1916 and 1917.

There is also an orchestral version, and it’s well known for the evocative subtitle “The Sea and the Seagulls,” given by Respighi.

Its desolate melody seems to paint gray skies and sea, along with the figure of a solitary seagull.

In the middle section, the music suddenly turns passionate, sure to stir the listener’s emotions.

It’s an ideal piece not only for a sense of coolness, but for those who want to feel a deep story and vivid imagery.

On a summer’s day, why not take your time savoring this dramatic tone painting?

the torn dayakagami de wa nai

A bittersweet yet beautiful soundscape unfolds, touching the strings of the heart.

Created by the Vocaloid producer Not-Red-Haired, it was released in May 2025.

Centered on themes of loss and the haziness of memory, the piano melodies and vanishingly soft whisper vocals draw listeners in deeply.

Perhaps due to the way the song shifts from a quiet atmosphere to an outpouring of emotion, the lingering afterglow feels far richer than what you’d expect from a track barely a minute long.

It’s a piece that will gently stay beside those who carry lost memories and emotions they cannot put into words.

A Japanese-style song by imie that evokes beautiful summer scenery.

Released in August 2020, it later became the title track of the album “Reika.” Hatsune Miku’s clear vocals conjure cool, summery memories.

The gentle melody and intricate arrangement weave a sonic world that feels like a summer evening at dusk.

It’s the perfect track for moments when you want to savor the bittersweet passing of the seasons or quietly sink into your memories at night.

Rainy HighwayNagie Lane

Nagie Lane is a vocal unit known for a music style centered on city pop.

They embody classic Japanese city pop in a straightforward way, and their appeal lies in a clean, unfussy performance.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is Rainy Highway.

It’s sung across the mid-low to high registers, and the chorus features a fairly high falsetto.

Due to the structure of the vocal lines, you can’t rely on breaths or tricks to get by, so it’s a song that truly demands solid vocal ability.

Les Enfants du Paradisworld end girlfriend

Inspired by the film Children of Paradise, this track is a signature work by Katsuhiko Maeda that fuses a wide range of genres—rooted in post-rock and electronica, while incorporating classical and noise elements.

Over its extended 7 minutes and 28 seconds, majestic strings, distorted drums, circus-like melodies, and chiptune-style synths intertwine to build a cinematic, dramatic soundscape.

Released in September 2010 as part of the album SEVEN IDIOTS, it was accompanied by an advance music video.

Despite being an instrumental piece, it vividly conveys through music the poetic and theatrical qualities of the film depicting the 19th-century Parisian theater scene.

It’s a perfect choice when you want to focus on work or immerse yourself in a cinematic atmosphere.
