Originally released in 2024. There is so much to discover, and love, about Japanese pop music, and in particular the genre known as City Pop, with elements of disco, R&B, funk, AOR and soul released in the 1970s and 1980s. There were also traces of the genre in the 1990s and it is increasingly found in today's pop music, both stylistically and through sampling, with artists like The Weeknd, Benny Sings and Friday Night Plans opening up the sound to a whole new generation of music lovers around the world. City Music Tokyo represents some of the many highlights of the genre from a variety of originators and key artists making this wonderful hybrid of music. High production values, stunning arrangements, the most talented musicians, and a lot of shiny new Japanese technology all coming together in some of the best studios in the world at the time! Featuring CARNATION, Yasushi Nakanishi, JADOES, Keiko Kimura, Tomoki Kikuchi, Yumi Seino, Takaki Horigome, Midori Hara, Emi Necozawa, Nanako Sato, Kyoko Furuya, Escalators, Mitsuko Horie, Namihiko Ohmura, Chikako Ueno, and Hiroshi Sato.
