There’s more to Nihongaku Radio than just Japanese music. Philosophically speaking, Nihongaku Radio is all about introducing people to broader musical world outside of their primary language. To that end, I’m stoked to introduce some new Thai and Korean artists I’ve recently discovered in this episode. Get ready for Lulileela, Orly, and Fever.

Of course, there’s still a ton of Japanese music in this episode including some requested Ton-Up Motors and a newer release from Maaya Sakamoto. Also, don’t miss Scandal in the return of the featured artist set at the end of the show.

Have you got a request? Hit me up on Twitter and let me know what you want to hear! And if you’re a fan of the show, please consider leaving a comment on Apple Podcasts. It would really help getting Nihongaku Radio to more listeners. Thanks!
