City Pop S/D

I love that song so much

Yeah, huge fan of Lihue!

I like the Vision track you posted but just sounds like a 90s jam though :shrug:?

subthread: city pop/reggae fusion

in this regard, i submit the following for your consideration:

junko yagami - "ジョハナスバーグ (Johannesburg)" (1985)

yeah that nohelani cypriano sounds awesome!

losing the plot a bit here, but on that note, here's a dj muro mixtape called hawaiian breaks that highlights hawaiian funk records. very fun!

that junko yagami tune appears on a comp that time capsule just put out, which focuses on the reggae tracks from pop & city pop artists...

this one's not on it, and it's cheesy and stupid and perhaps kinda a beginner song in that whole area, but i do love it:
