City Pop

City pop emerged in 1980s Japan, where it was born from a heady mix of disco, soft rock, and what can only be described as the 'I’ve just missed the last train home' vibe. Picture smooth synths, breezy melodies, and lyrics about twilight strolls and city lights, all whilst effortlessly ignoring any serious subject matter. It is the perfect soundtrack for pretending you're living your best life, even if you’re just scrolling through your phone in a dimly-lit room.
