All My Love feat. Sam OckGEMINI feat. SAM OCK
GEMINI is a female duo of piano and violin.
Their music directly reflects the beautiful sensibilities women possess, making it the pinnacle of healing.
As a guest vocalist, Sam Ock—whom I introduced earlier—also participates, further enhancing the soothing effect.
V.A.IN YA MELLOW TONE
A pioneering work that laid the foundation for modern jazzy, mellow hip-hop.
This album series launched a variety of artists, each gaining their own fans.
If you’re looking to relax, this is the album.
I recommend playing it softly in the background as BGM.
Better TogetherJack Johnson
A track from American musician Jack Johnson’s album In Between Dreams, which was a huge hit in both the U.S.
and Australia.
As he’s a surfer himself, it features a laid-back, organic sound.
It’s very relaxing to listen to on your day off or in the morning.
The album itself is also recommended!
No Such ThingJohn Mayer
A memorable song woven from yearning and passion, graced by a beautiful melody.
Many listeners likely still remember John Mayer’s gentle yet powerful vocals.
Celebrating the importance of “living true to yourself,” this track appears on his debut album, Room for Squares, released in June 2001.
In the United States, it’s embraced as an anthem that resonates with young people, and it’s loved by many fans in Japan as well.
With a relaxed tempo and refreshingly bright guitar tones, it rings pleasantly in the ears.
It’s a song that can give you courage when you’re struggling or feeling unsure.
It might just inspire you to find the strength to walk your own path.
In the Middle of a DreamKOKIA
This song carries the message: no matter what happens, let’s keep moving forward.
It’s sung by KOKIA, a singer-songwriter from Tokyo, and is included on her 10th album, “Where to go my love?”, released in 2013.
