Lisa Halim, a singer-songwriter representing the Japanese surf music scene, and Cunimondo Takiguchi, one of the most important figures in the city pop/city music scene, have collaborated for the first time!! In 2021, the single "Kimi to Blue" produced by Cunimondo Takiguchi was released and became a hit among fans of sea-oriented city pop music, which led to this collaboration with Ryusenkei!! "Love is Jealousy" is an extremely pleasant fusion of Hawaiian AOR and city music. Perfectly matched groove of Ryusenkei's performance and Lisa's gentle vocal.

Tokimeki Records, whose first album is now on sale, covers Original Love's hit song "Kiss"! The song features Hikari, singer of the neo-soul band Mime and vocalist on all the songs on the just-released first Tokimeki Records album, and Melraw, an up-and-coming saxophonist who has been featured on King Gnu, Wonk, and others. Great sweet and mellow arrangement reminiscent of 80s disco/boogie sound!

Remix 7inch from the project "Tetsuro Yafune & Seira Kariya" is now available!! The key person in the current city pop scene, "Cunimondo Takiguchi (ryusenkei)", and "Auto&mst", wicked beat maker in the Lo-Fi~Chill Hop scene, have joined as remixers!!

The 3rd release from Gotown Records, produced by Gota Nishidera from Nona Reeves!! The 7" includes Original Love's "It's a Wonderful World" featuring Maharajan on vocals and guitar, and a cover of Hiromi Go's "In the Cove". Original Love released this soulful masterpiece in 1994. This is a brilliant cover produced by Yudai Ohi (SANABAGUN.). The B-side is "In the Cove" from Hiromi Go's masterpiece album "super Drive" released in 1979. The mellow groove directly related to City POP composed by Tetsuji Hayashi is brilliantly interpreted in the 2020s!

Arlo’s second single available for the first time on 7” vinyl.

Hailed by The Guardian as “the hopeful new voice of her super-sad

generation” Arlo Parks released her second track in January 2019.

At the time of release Arlo told Clash Magazine:

"When I look at my generation I see a kaleidoscope of dejection, passion and

anxiety – there’s this strange mix of sadness and intimacy that saturates

Generation Z. 'Super Sad Generation' was inspired by the time my friends and

I sat on the green at sunset, half wine drunk and ugly crying for no reason in

particular."

Lifted from the Super Sad Generation EP ‘Paperbacks’ took its inspiration from

Space Song by Beach House and Changeling by DJ Shadow.

The British songwriter captures the specifics of being young and messed up

like no-one else" - Noisey

Stefan Schwander aka A Rocket IN DUB has been producing electronic music in Düsseldorf since the mid-1990s. He releases under a variety of pseudonyms such as Antonelli, Repeat Orchestra, Rhythm Maker, Harmonious Thelonious and While My Sequencer Gently Weeps. His music draws influences from techno, disco music (especially Giorgio Moroder), new wave, dub, abstract electronica and African music. In 2002, he released "Rocket No. 3", an old-school dub house classic with a distinctive vocoder voice. 20 years later, he has re-recorded the track together with JAN Delay on vocals. Both musicians share a great passion for dub music. Jan's great voice is just as distinctive as the vocoder 20 years ago and adds a touch of humanity to the original. The collaboration is released as a limited 7" single with artwork by Hendrik Krawen.
