Primarily active in Tokyo, I have experience as a backup dancer for artists, a music video dancer, and a commercial dancer. I continue to work as a dancer while also engaging in article production. After discovering Michael Jackson in junior high school, I began dancing in my second year of high school. Since starting dance, in addition to the J-Pop and Japanese rock I had been listening to, I began exploring Western R&B, rap, alternative music, and other tracks commonly used for dance. In elementary school, I spent three years in a choir, and because I love singing, I often go to karaoke for fun. These days, I enjoy a wide range of music, from Japanese rock and rap to K-pop.

YOASOBI “UNDEAD” Official Music Video / Theme song for ‘Monogatari Series: Off & Monster Season’

UNDEADYOASOBI

This is a flowing track by YOASOBI that’s garnered a lot of attention on social media.

Produced in July 2024 and based on an original short story written by Nisio Isin, it serves as the theme song for the anime “Monogatari Series: Off & Monster Season.” Its appeal lies in a message that urges the importance of living fully in the present without being bound by the past or the future, paired with a danceable sound that incorporates EDM elements.

In particular, ikura’s versatile vocals deftly convey the emotions of the characters, further enhancing the song’s worldbuilding.

With its bright, uplifting vibe, this track is perfect for Instagram Reels and Stories, and is highly recommended as BGM for fun everyday moments or energetic dance videos.

First Love Killernozomi

Noashi (noa) – First Love Killer [Official Music Video]

First Love Killernozomi

Born in 2000 and arguably one of today’s most talked-about singer-songwriters, Noshi is a multitalented artist who not only writes and performs her own songs but also handles arrangements and artwork.

While her name spread widely in 2024 thanks to the hit “Zenhōkō Bishōjo” (All-Directional Beautiful Girl), “Hatsukoi Killer,” released in May of the same year, also went viral for its exceptionally catchy sound—including the striking guitar riff in the intro—its skillful ensemble, and playful lyrics.

When singing it at karaoke, note that it’s not structured like a typical J-pop song with clearly divided A-melody, B-melody, and chorus.

Practice keeping the melodic lines from becoming too flat, and aim to deliver the rap-like sections rhythmically, coolly, and with effortless ease.

The song by “Youmou to Ohana” features a light, rhythmic jazz style.

Hana Chiba’s soft, clear vocals blend beautifully with Kazunori Ichikawa’s delicate guitar playing.

It’s included on the album “LIVE IN LIVING for Good Night,” released in August 2011, a collection themed around “songs that fit the night.” The track expresses a confession of love and the joy of enjoying time together, giving listeners energy and comfort.

It’s perfect for moments when you want to step away from daily noise, calm your mind, or simply relax.

It’s also frequently used in Instagram Reels and Stories, so give it a try!
