Picking up after Ken and Luna, we’re another month down in 2021, and we at Ongaku to You would like our readers to know what was filling our ears for the past month. Each track is available across all digital music streaming platforms with Apple Music being featured on this site.

“All Me” by IVVY 

This song reminded me why I love these guys so much. It is such a fun and catchy melody that really gets me moving. The vocal work done here is also spectacular. This is another all-around great single by IVVY.

“Kimi To Ireba” by Little Glee Monster

This is a lovely track and just shows how insanely talented these girls are. I do wish that they would commit to doing tracks fully acapella instead of doing only half. That being said, the composition in this number is indeed wonderful and complements the vocal work done here.

“Jasmine” by Gakuto Kajiwara

What really makes this track stand out is the jazz piano playing along with the trumpets which really gives this number an overall jazz feel without actually being jazz. At the end of the day to me, this is just a pop song, but the composition overall is done really well. Also, the vocals done by Kajiwara are just spectacular.

“Can’t Keep It Cool” by Akira Takano

I frequently have this song stuck in my head and I love it so much. On a personal level, this song really just speaks to me. The composition of this track is done super well, and it compliments the vocal work done by Takano really well. This is a wonderful way to kick off his ENTER album.

“Ajisai” by Three1989

Three1989 has had an incredible year with their debut album dropping earlier this year and they are not slowing down. They have also released three digital singles and an EP this year as well, and, personally, I think “Ajisai” is probably the best track they put out this year. It has this cool jazz feel about it that really pulls the listener in.
