This Is What It Feels LikeArmin van Buuren ft. Trevor Guthrie
This is a track by Armin van Buuren, who is extremely famous and popular in the United States.
It’s a mellow, emotionally resonant trance tune with touches that even feel a bit like R&B.
The powerful vocals match perfectly with the trance melody, and the chorus and break are both incredibly cool.
Yo-kai Exercise No. 1Dream5
A song by Dream5 that became a massive hit as the ending theme for the anime Yokai Watch.
It’s a bright, rhythmic dance number loved by a wide range of listeners, from kids to adults.
The lyrics are full of humor, blaming strange everyday happenings on yokai.
Released in April 2014, it peaked at No.
8 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and stayed on the charts for 44 weeks, becoming a long-running hit.
This track is also perfect as background music for school sports days and dance performances.
The moment the intro starts, it’s guaranteed to send the crowd’s excitement soaring!

E-girls enjoy immense popularity among junior high and high school students, and their lifestyle—especially their fashion—draws a lot of attention.
They perform a wide range of songs, from intense and cool to cute, and more and more girls are dancing by imitating them.
God Is A GirlGroove Coverage
I think many people know this track since it’s a very famous trance song.
The build-up in the chorus has that quintessential trance sense of speed, and the electric melody feels really good.
The drama-like music video is also worth checking out.
Becoming InsaneInfected Mushroom
The acoustic guitar in the intro is really cool and gritty.
But the metal-style vocals, which contrast sharply with it, are awesome.
The simple melody line makes it easy for beginners to get into, and the build-up in the chorus feels incredibly satisfying, making it a very enjoyable track.
PistoleroJUNO REACTOR
Just because the title includes “Pistole,” it features pistol sounds that are as realistic as something out of a Western.
The somewhat Indian vibe you sense is apparently because this track was made in the Goa region of India.
