Jash: Rec Jash City Pop

Jash 01.23.25	I recently discovered a Canadian record store that’s main focus is Japanese import vinyl, just got Hiroshi Suzuki’s “Cat” from there, this could be a slippery slope
pyroflare77 01.23.25	Funny, I'm listening to 1 right now. I'm also a newb here so no recs/stealth bookmark.
efp123 01.23.25	Latest Remi Wolfe album is spectacular
JohnnyoftheWell 01.23.25	first three Taeko Onuki albums are your bible, and then Junko Yagami - Communication Tohoku Shinkansen - Thru Traffic Tomomi Sano - Silent Flight Yumi Murata - Desire Takako Mamiya - Love Trip Yumi Matsutoya - Misslim (technically an antecedent to city pop, which she played later anyway, but this here is the business) Akina Nakamori - Bitter and Sweet (idol kayo more than city pop, but will scratch every one of those same itches) Haruomi Hosono/Shigeru Suzuki/Tatsuo Yamashita - Pacific (chill ass exotica by the cooking squad behind half of peak city pop) and then make a new list for the techno kayo binge that should be mandatory for all city pop trawlers at some point
Jash 01.24.25	I started Love Trip this morning upon viewing some Reddit threads, so far I love it, so thank you for this further chunk to dive into
GmemberKills 01.25.25	all the ones johnny said are bops and must listens here are a few favs off the top cindy - angel touch (i wrote a review for this one) arni - coool (might like this better than timely) tomoko aran - fuyū kūkan momoko kikuchi - oceanside (& the album adventure too) mioko yamaguchi - yume hiko miho nakayama - hide n seek (if you like cindy this is really similar)
Sinternet 01.25.25	yukika for modern stuff directly inspired by city-pop
DocSportello 01.25.25	water is for cooling, not fires or people, chill me out, bookmarked
GmemberKills 01.25.25	yeah Yukika is really solid, with some big highlights. Love Trip is classic for me though, it's just got such high replay value. Very cozy easy listening
Jash 03.07.25	Bump after reaching 10 rated, will continue through everyone’s rec’s, new ones also welcome. Loving this deep dive so far
Jash 05.17.25	Just found a decent copy of 8 and splurged for my birthday, very excited
