YoungThe Chainsmokers
The Chainsmokers are a DJ duo based in New York.
Andrew Taggart usually handles vocals, while Alex Pall often takes care of the DJing.
Their songs are EDM yet place strong emphasis on melody, making them not only danceable but also distinguished by the beauty of their melodies and vocals—their greatest strength.
You’re InvitedThe Dare
Based in New York, The Dare’s music is characterized by a fusion of electro-pop and indie dance.
This release creates a lively, flashy party atmosphere, drawing listeners in with simple yet addictive melodies and rhythms.
The lyrics carry messages themed around social rebellion and personal freedom, inviting listeners to join the party.
Released in August 2024, the track is part of the debut album “What’s Wrong With New York?” scheduled for release on September 6 of the same year.
The music video, directed by Jake Lazovick, features striking visuals set against glamorous party scenes.
You Belong To MeThe Doobie Brothers
Formed in 1971 and still active today, the legendary band The Doobie Brothers released this song in 1977.
The high-register vocals are certainly striking, but what’s truly beautiful is the ensemble—many instruments layered together without ever sounding cluttered.
With electric piano and strings, it’s a track that reveals new details the more you listen.
You Found MeThe Fray
A track that sings about disappointment and heartache in life, where it’s hard to know whom to trust.
It was released in 2008 by the American rock band The Fray and became a hit around the world.
The track has been used in TV dramas such as Grey’s Anatomy.
Yearning For Your LoveThe Gap Band
Here’s a track from The Gap Band, who were active in the U.S.
during the 1970s and ’80s.
It’s a love song sung with a refreshing touch over a funky beat.
While it feels like the same guitar cutting phrase runs throughout, a cleverly crafted combination with the other sounds keeps it from getting repetitive.
There’s also a guitar solo toward the end, letting you enjoy the wide-ranging appeal of the electric guitar all within this one song.
The very calm, low-toned male vocals are perfect for when you want to relax.
You Didn’t Love Me ThenThe Hit Parade
That refreshingly innocent album cover seems to tell you exactly what the music sounds like—this is a neo-acoustic classic! The Hit Parade is a band formed in London in 1984 around songwriter Julian Henry, and, surprisingly, one of the founding members was Raymond Watts, who would later become known for industrial rock projects like PIG.
Let me introduce their signature work and a landmark of neo-acoustic music, their 1988 debut With Love From The Hit Parade.
Made in a DIY spirit, the production is by no means polished, and the sound is full of homemade simplicity—but it’s precisely because the songwriting is so outstanding that the album continues to be loved even now, in the 2020s.
From “You Didn’t Love Me Then,” famous as the source for Flipper’s Guitar’s classic “Camera Full Of Kisses/全ての言葉はさよなら,” to every other track, the album is packed with short, beautiful songs that sparkle with youthful radiance.
It was reissued in 2007 by Japan’s VINYL JAPAN with a ton of bonus tracks in a paper-sleeve edition, so if you spot it at a record shop, don’t hesitate—grab it!
Yuve Yuve YuThe Hu
When people hear “folk metal,” many imagine bands that incorporate European folk instruments.
But there are popular folk metal bands from Asia too.
A prime example is The HU.
They’re a Mongolian folk metal band, and their songs are characterized by frequent use of the Mongolian language.
That said, their style is upbeat and accessible for anyone to enjoy.
I recommend giving them a listen and experiencing their appeal for yourself.
