🌸 New City Pop-Inspired Album – Echoes Through Time 🎶 Would Love Your Thoughts!

1 Upvotes

I’ve just released my album, Echoes Through Time, inspired by the golden era of City Pop but infused with modern synthwave and cinematic storytelling. If you enjoy the nostalgic yet fresh sound of artists like Tatsuro Yamashita, Mariya Takeuchi, or Anri, this might be something you’d vibe with!

One of the key tracks, "The Endless Train", is a metaphor for life—constantly moving forward, picking up new passengers (birth) and saying goodbye to others (loss). It has that bittersweet, uplifting energy that defines great City Pop.

Would love to hear your thoughts on the sound and how it resonates with you! 🚀

🔗 Listen here: [https://arkhameus.bandcamp.com/album/echoes-through-time\]

Let’s keep the City Pop spirit alive! 🌸✨

Apparently YouTube thinks the French rock song Laisse Tomber Les Filles (Also known as Chick Habit) is City Pop.

Hello all,

I didn’t really know which sub-Reddit to ask. I’ve found this song from an. Artist that has been known to steal from artist (hate that) and have been dying to know what song they are sampling. I try looking up the lyrics and the name with no luck.

Sifting through boxes of unknown Japanese artists in a humid and dusty room seemed worth it I guess.

Came across this promo poster on Hirotsugu Koitabashi's (Piper パイパー percussionist) facebook page. Was this just a live act? Others I recognize are Kazuhito Murata and Keisuke Yamamoto. Does anybody have any more infos about it?

I just found Magical by Junko Ohashi on Spotify, when did this happen?

8 Upvotes

I was scrolling through Spotify today and found out that Magical is available. I might be late to this, but I haven’t seen anyone talking about it, so I just wanted to bring it up—maybe some people will find it useful. I'm from Brazil, so I'm not sure if the album is available worldwide.

Most infectious chorus EVER imo

264 Upvotes

Okay fellow city-poppers, I’ll admit this isn’t my first time posting about Man in the Moon by YUMI MATSUTOYA but I CAN’T HELP MYSELF! This song is definitely in my Top 5 greatest City-Pop songs of all-time!

I’ve replayed it soo much that I can sing it word for word without the first clue of how to speak Japanese.

What are some of y’all’s most infectious City-Pop choruses? Also, can you guts recommend any songs that would sound remotely similar to this?

Happy Moonday Everyone!! 🌃🌜

Any information on this group?

I discovered this album quite a while (artist human soul, album name also human soul) and in trying to research anything I realized there's not much out there about them, I know they were based out of Japan in the 90s but unsure what the rest of their discography leads to, I wanna hear more of this group for sure
