SAMURAI DRIVENEW!hitomi

Featured as the theme song for Kao’s “Brand-new AUBE” commercial, this track drew attention alongside its stylish visuals.

While preserving the intensity of the original, it’s arranged into a refined pop-rock sound, with a driving, exhilarating melody as its appeal.

The worldview depicting someone pressing forward despite doubt and impatience makes it perfect for moments when you want to refresh your daily life.

sunday driverNEW!kurayamisaka

This is a track from the album “kurayamisaka yori ai wo komete,” released in September 2025 by the Tokyo-based rock band kurayamisaka.

Layering a thick guitar sound infused with shoegaze and alternative rock elements with Sachi Naito’s rounded vocals creates a unique atmosphere where intensity and wistfulness coexist.

Set against a driving band ensemble, the lyrics evoke passing scenery and shifting emotions, carrying a sense of nostalgia.

The song was performed at a music festival the same year, drawing attention as a live-ready number.

While it’s originally built to impress with a wall-of-sound ensemble of three guitars, it should be perfectly coverable with a two-guitar arrangement.

Since it’s a tightly played, predominantly 8-beat track, practice with an emphasis on conveying the strength of the melody.

It’s performed by Koresawa, known for her ability to convey raw emotions.

Released in November 2022, the song was later included on the April 2023 album “Kawaiku Shinagara Matteru ne.” It was also selected as the ending theme for Fuji TV’s music program “Lovemusic” for December 2022.

When you still love someone but have to choose to part ways, even the sight of the sunset on your way home can bring you to tears.

The sorrow of joyful memories and future promises fading away resonates alongside her gentle vocals.

I especially recommend it to those who had to break up without being able to stop loving, and are suffering because of it.
