Howling DiverBLUE ENCOUNT
BLUE ENCOUNT’s “Howling Diver,” used as the first tie-in song for the 25th anniversary project of the mobile game Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu.
With powerful lyrics and an up-tempo, heavy sound, this track gives you the strength to face forward and keep moving ahead.
It’s a song we want both those giving their all right now and those stuck in worry and standing still to hear.
Pure in the worldFRUITS ZIPPER
A pop tune that brings back the sweet-and-sour feeling of first love, packed tightly with everything that makes FRUITS ZIPPER so charming.
First performed at the 2023 event “Goodbye Nakano Sunplaza Music Festival” and then released digitally, this track channels curiosity and pure emotion through its lyrics.
The conversational, freewheeling tempo draws you in and pulls you along.
Recommended not only for idol fans, but for anyone who loves a full-throttle uptempo banger.
Listen with friends and the fun is sure to double!
deadlockKamisama, boku wa kizuite shimatta
If you’re looking for the perfect rock song to boost your energy, I recommend “deadlock” by the band Kami-sama, Boku wa Kidzuite Shimatta.
Its up-tempo, fast-paced beat pairs perfectly with the driving guitars, and just listening to it will get you hyped.
The chorus switches to English lyrics, giving it a vibe that feels almost like Western music.
Teenager ForeverKing Gnu
A song by the four-piece crossover band King Gnu that was featured in a commercial.
Its fast shuffle beat and distinctive chord progression are addictive, making it a hard-to-categorize track.
The powerful, message-driven lyrics are delivered through twin vocals—one high, one low—which shifts the song’s atmosphere and draws you into its world.
RAM-PAM-PAMSixTONES
SixTONES is a standout Johnny’s group that debuted in 2020.
Together with Snow Man, who debuted at the same time, they’re a must-watch duo set to take the scene by storm.
Their songs have a distinctly different vibe from previous Johnny’s groups—impressive, right? The solid beats paired with a snappy melodic line are really cool.
It’s a track that gradually amps up your excitement.
