見知らぬ恋人 (Mishiranu Koibito) by 小室みつ子

Critically hailed as "a hidden gem," Mitsuko Komuro's third studio album is a sweet trip of neon lights on a merry late night. Although not as flashy or all over the place compared to its competitors, it succinctly holds on its own. With classic city pop sounds, soothing soul, and groovy bossa, among others infused in the mix, this record serves as a reminder of the beauty of a timeless era in Japanese music - and music overall.
