今週の J-Pop Hub では日本の最新アニメ「九龍ジェネリックロマンス」のエンディング曲、Mekakusheの「恋のレトロニム」を取り上げます。

Have you ever been completely blindsided by an artist who suddenly reveals a side you never knew existed? That's exactly what happened when we dove into five different STARTO artists that took us on an unexpected musical journey.Our exploration began with Ae! group's "Chameleon," a jazz-infused track with groovy bass lines and brass elements that had us immediately moving. From impressive guitar solos to saxophone flourishes, this track showcased Ae! group's potential as a pure band rather than just performers.SixTONES' "Barrier" hit us with raspy vocals and aggressive delivery, blending genres from jazz to rap to rock. The forceful punctuation in lines like "You are my girl" creates their distinctive sound, while Kento Nakajima's "Just Kenty" brought pure joy with its bubbly electronic dance beat and retro 80s disco influences. His sweet vocals promising to "share his time" perfectly capture his genuine, accessible persona.WEST's "AHO" took chaos to new heights, transitioning through surf rock, big band sounds, Latin salsa, reggae, and rock ballad elements—all within a single song. This wild blend perfectly encapsulates their Kansai-style humor and creativity, demonstrating why the group works so well together.The biggest surprise came from Ryosuke Yamada. His tracks "RED," "VELVET," and "HUSTLER" left us speechless, revealing a mature, sultry side that contrasts sharply with his typically cute image. "Hustler" particularly impressed us with its swagger as Yamada declared, "I'm a hustler" and "Get to be a legend"—statements that seem increasingly believable given the quality of his work.These songs demonstrate STARTO's commitment to nurturing versatile artists who can explore different musical territories while maintaining their unique identities. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to Japanese music, these tracks offer something fresh and exciting.

You've probably seen Oshi no Ko and you might recognise Hatsune Miku but but the world of J-Pop and Idols is inseparable from anime. There is an idol version of... eeeverything.

The electric buzz of anticipation filled the air as we stepped into the venue, determined not to miss our chance at BE:FIRST merch. What followed was a night of pure magic as the seven-member Japanese pop group delivered an unforgettable performance in New York City.Standing in the merchandise line, screens displaying the concert's opening let us witness the explosive start with "Mainstream" – a perfect opener that set the tone for the night. When we finally entered the main space, what struck us immediately was how different this fan experience felt from other concerts. The crowd created a welcoming atmosphere that felt less like attending a show and more like friends gathering to enjoy music together.Each member brought their distinct personality to the stage through both performance and fashion choices. Ryoki embodied his "bad boy" image in dark green with a cap, while Ryuhei caught every eye in sparkly hot pink. Junon's fluid, graceful movements contrasted with Sota's powerful dance breaks, showcasing the group's diverse talents. What truly amazed us was experiencing their individual styles while witnessing flawlessly synchronized choreography.The intimate venue allowed for genuine connections between artists and fans. When members asked where people were from, you could hear individual responses – Boston, Colombia, Brazil, DC – creating moments impossible in stadium settings. We even spotted fans representing other fandoms, including ATINY and ARMY with their light sticks, showing a beautiful cross-fandom support system.What made this concert particularly poignant was knowing it featured all seven members, including Ryoki, who will soon depart the group. During a brief moment addressing fans, he became visibly emotional, simply stating he wants to "live life" – words that resonated deeply with everyone present.For anyone who hasn't experienced BE:FIRST live, we cannot recommend it enough. Their online presence, while impressive, doesn't capture the energy they bring to their live performance. Subscribe now for all our concert experiences and insights on the artists we love!BE:FIRST info: Instagram X YouTube officialSupport the showPlease help Music Elixir by rating, reviewing, and sharing the episode.

Interview by Kris PetersHeavy Metal and J-Pop are two genres which, for all intents and purposes, should not be joined in sonic matrimony, but try telling that to Australian-born Japanese sensation Ladybeard and the two girls who make up Babybeard.Since 2020, the powerful trio has existed in some form or another, spearheaded throughout by wrestler turned DJ turned vocalist Ladybeard, who brings not only a sense of danger to the group, but also an abundance of energy and fun that has seen their music transcend barriers the world over. Children who have never liked metal before suddenly think it's cool because Babybeard do it, and on the other side of the fence, metalheads who would have previously been embarrassed for anyone to witness them listening to J-Pop now have a legitimate reason due to the two worlds colliding.It is a brand of music that unites genres and defies expectations, all wrapped in a pretty pink bow and pigtails. Sound strange? Well, take a listen and tell me I'm wrong…After decimating Australian audiences in 2024 with their Adorable Assault On Australia tour, Babybeard return to reclaim their throne with a special one-off performance at SMASH Convention 2025 in Sydney over July 12 and 13. Spread over the weekend, Babybeard will be doing a showcase performance as well as a meet and greet question time, along the way ushering in brand new trainee member Mizuki, who is not only performing with Babybeard for the first time in Australia, will also be making her international performing debut of any kind.As long-time friends of HEAVY, when we found out Babybeard were coming Down Under once more, we harassed Ladybeard until he agreed to an interview, with the effervescent frontman once again providing a plethora of delights."There's something for everybody," Ladybeard promised. "There's drama, there's tragedy, there's comedy, there's no romance. But, you know, apart from that, there's something for absolutely everyone."When talk turns to last year's tour, Ladybeard reveals something totally unexpected."Last year in Sydney - for the first time ever - we had a wall of death at one of our shows," he laughed. "It was awesome. It was our first show in Sydney, again, it was a weeknight, so it was not the biggest show that we had. But we're there, we're leading into the last song, and there had just been a shoey, so the stage is wet and everyone was feeling frivolous, and as I was just introducing the last song, someone in the audience yells out, 'wall of death!' So we're like, okay, if you guys want to. The girls have never seen a wall of death before because in Japan, we do shows for idol fans, right? So that was their first ever wall of death. It was interesting because there was a bunch of loose chairs on the floor, so it was a pretty dangerous wall of death, but they got through it."In the full interview, Ladybeard reflected on their previous tour in Australia, sharing memorable experiences and expressing excitement about returning to connect with fans. The conversation highlighted the unique blend of Japanese pop and heavy metal in their music, emphasizing the importance of creating a community atmosphere during performances that encourages audience participation.We spoke about the live show and what to expect, the drafting of Mizuki into the band, their expectations of Australian crowds, how blending heavy metal and Japanese pop is accepted in Japan, milking Kangaroos and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Summer nostalgia hits different when it comes with a side of hope for devoted J-pop fans. Sarah and Panic serve up a deliciously meandering conversation that begins with seasonal treats but evolves into something much more exciting for Arashi followers.Remember those perfect Ben & Jerry's flavors that disappeared from freezers forever? We take a deep dive into the "Flavor Graveyard," mourning lost treasures like Rainforest Crunch, Cool Britannia, and Wavy Gravy. The passionate debate about these frozen delights reveals how certain foods become time capsules for specific moments in our lives - and why we're still grieving discontinued pints decades later.But the temperature in the studio rises when we discuss recent appearances by Ninomiya on Japanese variety shows. During a dinner with members of Snowman, he dropped what might be the most tantalizing hints yet about an Arashi comeback. His coy response when directly asked about future concerts - "Well, I guess so. We probably should" - has us analyzing every word and facial expression. With Arashi's anniversary approaching in November, could this be the moment fans worldwide have been waiting for? From ice cream memories to concert whispers, this episode captures the bittersweet feeling of longing - for discontinued treats, for travel adventures, and for the return of beloved performers.What flavor memories transport you back in time? And are you ready for what might be the most anticipated comeback in J-pop history?

On this episode of Japan Station, I dig into the history of a fascinating example of Japanese slang: gyarandu (ギャランドゥ). This is a Japanese word that means refers to the patch of hair some people have between their belly button and public area. Often called "happy trail" or "belly/stomach hair," in English, gyarandu has a really interesting history that goes back to one of Japan's most popular 1980s male pop stars: Hideki Saijo.

The complexities of music industry contracts take center stage as the Seoul court grants Ador's injunction against NewJeans, effectively blocking the group from independent activities under their "NJZ" rebranding. This ruling reinforces a fundamental truth about entertainment contracts—they can't simply be abandoned unilaterally. The stark contrast comes with A.C.E's amicable separation from Beat Interactive, where the company made the unusual decision to allow the group to retain their name and content rights post-contract, describing it as "departing from conventional industry practices."The music scene buzzes with tour announcements G-Dragon unveils PHASE 1 of his "Ubermensch" world tour beginning in Tokyo, while GOT7's Jay B prepares for his first US solo tour "Tape Re:Load" with stops in six major cities—though Boston fans are left disappointed once again. Festival season approaches with Lollapalooza Chicago featuring TWICE, Fujii Kaze, and KATSEYE, while J-Hope continues his festival presence at Lollapalooza Berlin.Beyond music, Snow Man's Shota Watanabe ventures into horror films, playing an aspiring performer investigating haunted locations for social media fame only to encounter genuine supernatural phenomena. Meanwhile, STARTO Entertainment takes significant legal action against ticket resellers, identifying individuals reselling concert tickets and revoking their fan club memberships—sparking our passionate discussion about ethical ticket reselling practices and why the current system hurts both artists and fans.We envision a better approach where resale platforms would maintain original ticket pricing plus reasonable service fees rather than allowing unlimited markups. After all, when shows appear "sold out" but venues remain partially empty because resellers couldn't move overpriced tickets, everyone loses—especially the performers looking out at empty seats.What do you think about the New Jeans ruling?

Step into a musical adventure celebrating the innovative sounds of female K-pop and J-pop artists who are breaking boundaries and defying expectations. Sarah and Panic take you on a journey through unexpected genre combinations and production techniques that showcase why these groups deserve your undivided attention.Our exploration begins with MADEIN's "SATURN," where sweet harmonies float over grinding bass in a fascinating juxtaposition that left us wondering, "How can they blend acoustic guitars, futuristic synths, and R&B influences so seamlessly?" This genre-defying approach sets the tone for our entire listening session.We then discover f5ve (formerly SG5) and their sparkly synth-pop "Magic Clock," before diving into UNIS's "Curious" – a track that boldly fuses heavy rock guitar with pop vocals and dance beats. But the true revelation comes with LE SSERAFIM's latest EP "Hot," where we explore three distinctly different tracks that showcase incredible versatility: from 70s funk basslines with 50s-style vocal production in "Hot," to the psychedelic rock and Motown influences of "Come Over," culminating in the hypnotic, trance-inducing "Ash" that completely captivated us.What makes these selections so compelling is how these artists reinterpret nostalgic sounds while creating something thoroughly modern. The B-sides particularly impressed us, often containing the most artistic experimentation and vocal showcases. If you really want to do justice to your artist, you need to introduce this type of music.Whether you're already a fan of these groups or completely new to them, this episode will transform how you think about girl group music. Give these boundary-pushing artists a chance – their unexpected sound combinations might just create your next musical obsession.MADEIN info: Instagram  X  YouTube  SATURN (Spotify)F5ve info:  Instagram  X  YouTube  Magic Clock (Spotify)Unis info:  Instagram  X  YouTube  Curious (Spotify)Le Sserafim info: Instagram  X  YouTube   HOT (EP Spotify)Support the showPlease help Music Elixir by rating, reviewing, and sharing the episode.
