1. "A Long Day"/ Mitsume (2016)
Mitsume is an indie band from Tokyo.
Mitsume is a big reason why I've been able to research and like so much music.
I saw them live once in my hometown of Sapporo, which led me to look into them more deeply, and I was really influenced by their wide range of musical beliefs, independent stance, and Takuroh Toyama, who does the photography for Mitsume, among many other things.
As for Mitsume's music, I really like what someone said about it being like glass. The sound is harmonious with the sound of Japanese. It's the kind of music that stands out because of its transparency.
2.「Salad Days」/ Mac Demarco(2014)
This is the second album by a Canadian SSW.
I was influenced by my older brother in many ways, and music is one of them. When I visited my brother's house, I found this album playing on the record player. It had a unique guitar sound that was instantly recognizable as Mac Demarco, and the songs were filled with ambiguous emotions, like walking face down in the sunlight through the trees. It was so shocking that it stayed in my head ever since I heard it.
This is the album that made me strongly aware of the world of foreign indie music, which I had never been exposed to before.
3.「Brahms:Symphony No.1」/ Carl Böhm, Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra (1959)
I used to listen to only classical music until I was in high school, so this one too.
I remember being moved to tears when I heard it for the first time because of its solemn, rational, and passionate performance like a mass of energy.
This is a special piece among the many Brahms pieces, and one that I think is full of the charm of classical music. Please listen to it at high volume.
4.『Ampersands』/ mei ehara(2020)
I've loved this album since it was released under the name may.e. I first saw the video on youtube. I was very happy when I found out that Kakubarizm was releasing a CD.
I really love the last album and the albums from my indie days, but this album was released during Corona and it became an important piece of support for me in 2020.
I love the way her voice touches my heart as if it were touching my skin, and her lyrics are like turning a book one by one.
5.「That's Entertainment」/ Cymbals(2000)
This is a very attractive album that includes some interviews, and has Cymbals' fast pace, stylish and charming pop, and a bit of irony.
It's a great guitar pop album!
This album is like a treasure chest that brings back sweet and sour feelings whenever you listen to it.
6.「Forever Turned Around」/ Whitney(2019)
A folk-rock duo from Chicago.
A morning by a lake, the air is a little cool and clear. Whitney, with her simple but clear guitar and voice, fits such an atmosphere very well.
I hope they can make it to Japan...
7.「Riot On An Empty Street」/ Kings of Convenience(2004)
A Norwegian folk duo that I came to know because of the influence of MIZ, the duo that the two members of MONO NO AWARE are playing.
They have beautiful harmonies, a lyrical world that makes you feel a bit lonely, and each phrase is simple but beautiful and impressive, and the album is really great!
This year, they are going to release their first album in 12 years, and one of the comments they made was
"In any case make sure you can enjoy as an ALBUM! Dont let the fun playlists fool you, they will be gone in 10 years. But our album will remain."
It's only now that we can think about how to face the album as a work of art.
8."Public Morality" / Public Morality (2015)
This is an album by a Korean home-recording artist who is currently working under the name "Aerial Thief.
This is a piece that destroys a certain image of home recording.
The main focus is on the gut guitar performance, but there is a tremendous amount of information behind it, and it is hard to believe that the album is less than 30 minutes long, as you can't leave after entering the magnificent sound world of noise, electronic sounds, and exquisite sound distortion.
It's hard to believe that it's less than 30 minutes long. Recently in Japan, I think it has something in common with the musical style of Hakushi Hasegawa.
9.「20/20」/ スカート(2017)
Last but not least, we have Skirt, a Tokyo indie from the same generation as Mitsume.
Skirt has an excellent pop sense, and this album has just the right balance of freshness and darkness.
This is an album that has helped me personally in many ways....
This album has helped me in many ways... It has supported me when I was lonely and in pain, and it has also led me to my current activities as CRJA.
This is an album that I will cherish from now on.
Thank you for seeing this through to the end!
