somniaarne
Arne is a male-female twin-vocal band from Gifu whose dream- and night-themed sound stirs the heart.
Formed in 2019, they craft a unique sonic world with irregular rhythms and dynamic developments.
To mark their 5th anniversary, they released the mini-album “In your somnia” in March 2024.
Across every track—including the lead song “somnia”—they capture the transparent atmosphere of the night and swirling emotions.
The music video for “orchard” was filmed at the Hikari Museum in Takayama, Gifu—vocal-guitarist Hirame’s hometown—highlighting the band members’ roots.
At their first-ever one-man show on March 22, 2024, held at Tsukimiru Kimowo Omou in Aoyama, Tokyo, they performed every track from the album.
Arne continues to push the boundaries of rock and forge new sounds—don’t take your eyes off them.
Hold on a second with that dress.back number
“Wait a Second, That Dress,” included on the first album At no Matsuri (Aftermath).
The lyrics, which depict the complexities of a man’s heart so vividly that you can imagine the story from the title alone, are likely to resonate with many men.
The upbeat rhythm feels comfortable for karaoke and the vocal range isn’t wide, but be careful not to fall behind since the melody moves a bit quickly.
It’s a pop tune that blends bittersweet yet somewhat comical lyrics with a friendly melody, and will likely be a hit—especially at karaoke sessions with an all-male crowd.
Empty Eyesbird
Bird is a cool singer with vocals that reflect influences from a wide range of music, including jazz and R&B.
Her artist name comes from her sleek voice and the fact that she originally had an Afro—like a bird’s nest.
Speaking of Afros, they’re practically synonymous with funk! So from the look alone it was clear she was a funk artist, and among bird’s songs, “Sora no Hitomi” is an especially funky track where her vocals are razor-sharp.
I’ll confess my feelings on graduation day.eijun feat. miyuhan
You’ve probably been seeing the name “eijun” a lot lately—that’s the solo moniker used by THE BACK HORN’s guitarist, Eijun Suganami, when he works as a lyricist, composer, and arranger.
The song he created in collaboration with singer-songwriter Miyuhan, “Sotsugyoushiki no Hi, Kokurimasu” (I’ll Confess on Graduation Day), is another great one.
It portrays a girl who decides to confess her feelings on graduation day; her heart sways wildly as she plans how to confess, spinning out all kinds of fantasies… That chaotic, rom-com-like lyricism is somehow achingly bittersweet.
If you’re looking for a boost of courage for your unrequited love, definitely give it a listen!
What I want to tell you before graduationerica
With lyrics overflowing with honest feelings for someone special and moving strings that resonate, “What I Want to Tell You Before Graduation” is a song that makes you want to graduate with a clear, uplifting heart.
Released by erica in 2015, it features a charming vocal and lyrics that anyone struggling with love can’t help but relate to.
It sings, in a true-to-life way, about the unavoidable parting from someone who shared your youth, and it’s a song I’d recommend to those who want to step forward with a refreshed mindset.

As if blessing a new beginning, Erica’s “Graduation Song” is perfect for a moving scene at a graduation ceremony.
Celebrating the precious time spent with friends, the song’s gentle guitar tones and rich strings resonate in the heart, warmly coloring the moment of graduation.

A summer that ends in secondslyrical school
A surefire summer tune from the girls’ rap unit, lyrical school, that always gets the crowd going live.
Because fun times fly by in an instant, it’s packed with the message: “Let’s make the most of the moment we only have now.” The tropical vibe built on electronic sounds, the rolling rhythm, and the cute yet bold flows will have your body swaying before you know it.
Hime’s dynamic mid-song section with its shifts in tempo is insanely cool, too! There’s even a phrase that seems to nod to Ozaken’s “Bokura ga Tabi ni Deru Riyuu.” Wrapped in a sense of liberation, Byoude Owaru Natsu—Why not drop everything and go all-in on this summer?
