Discover Hidden Gems: Hand Curated Japanese Funk, Soul, Pop & Jazz-Fusion From The Pre-2000s

[Aida_Arisa]

Hi everyone — I’m Aida Arisa. I put together two carefully curated playlists that collect both rare and essential Japanese tracks from the 1970s and 1980s, with other decades coming soon. These playlists highlight groove, musicianship, and melodies that deserve wider attention. A balanced mix of chill late-night tracks and upbeat pieces for playlists, parties, or background listening.
