Started working as a music writer as a side job while employed at a record shop, and for over 18 years I’ve contributed to music magazines, disc guide books, mooks, and web media. As a writer my main field is Western music, but as a listener for over 35 years, I always try to keep my curiosity alive with the motto “I like what I like.” I have experience playing in bands, where I was a bassist who handled songwriting and composition. Instruments I’ve played include bass, guitar, and piano. I began studying English in my mid-40s and continue to do so today.

Editorial Policy

From the perspective of an active club DJ, I’ve selected Western music suitable for White Day that gives back heartfelt feelings, focusing on tracks that convey gratitude, kindness, and a hint of shyness, all grounded in the vibe cultivated on the dance floor. These are warm, emotionally resonant numbers with melodies that aren’t overly sweet yet linger in the heart, gently accompanying time spent with someone special or a night that leaves a lasting afterglow.
