OTARU 1986 – Snowfall Gaslight Nights City Pop | 日本のシティポップ Playlist

Welcome to City Pop & Japanese 80s vibes! 🎵 Otaru, Hokkaido, 1986, a winter night a little after midnight. Snow is falling without a sound along the Otaru Canal. The stone promenade, new that same year, is already white, and the row of gas lamps throws orange and amber light across the old stone warehouses, the snow on their roofs and the slow dark water, where every lamp shivers in a long reflection. A black coupe is parked in the fresh snow by the stone railing, headlights on, a thin layer of snow on its roof and hood. Beside it, a woman with long wavy brown hair, in a cream knit cap, a long cream scarf and a camel coat, holds her gloved hands together as her breath rises white. Work is finally over, and this is her few quiet minutes alone with the canal. Then the slow way home: past the dark stone banks of the old business street, a small kissaten with a kerosene stove glowing orange behind a fogged window, the snowed-in sleepers of the Temiya Line and the empty platform after the last train, up to a small room where the desk lamp is turned low, until the whole town is asleep under the snow and only one amber lamp is still burning on the corner. All 15 songs are sung in Japanese by a soft, breathy female vocalist. If you don't speak Japanese, the voice sits in the mix like one more warm instrument: you follow the melody, not the words, so it can stay on while you finish the last of your work and keep going after you close the laptop. Acoustic and felt piano layered with warm Rhodes, a round fretless-style bass, brushed live drums with a quiet hi-hat and a soft string pad. The album starts around 97 to 100 BPM and settles gently down to 92 BPM by the last songs, each part a little calmer than the one before, with the same loudness from song to song and no snow or wind sounds, sleigh bells, sound effects or sudden drops, so nothing wakes you if you drift off before the end. 🎧 Perfect for: 🌙 Winding Down & Falling Asleep 💻 Late-Night Coding & Study ❄️ A Quiet Winter Night Alone in the City 🛋️ Relaxation ♪New Playlist Video.♪ 80s Japanese city pop – Otaru Snowfall Gaslight Nights 1986 00:00 01. ストーブの喫茶店 — Stove-Warmed Kissaten 04:27 02. ガス灯の運河 — Gaslight Canal Walk 08:53 03. 石造りの倉庫 — Stone Warehouse Row 13:21 04. 硝子工房の灯り — Glass Workshop Window 17:48 05. 白い息 — White Breath Rising 22:15 06. 手宮線の枕木 — Temiya Line Sleepers 26:42 07. 北のウォール街 — Northern Bank Street 31:10 08. 雪をかぶった車 — Snow on the Hood 35:36 09. 坂の上の灯 — Lights Up the Hill 40:04 10. 天狗山の灯り — Tengu Mountain Lights 44:32 11. 駅のホームで — Otaru Station Platform 48:59 12. 手袋の片方 — One Glove Left Behind 53:26 13. 部屋の灯りを落として — Lamp Turned Low 57:52 14. 眠る運河 — Sleeping Canal Promenade 1:02:18 15. おやすみ小樽 — Goodnight, Otaru 🎧 15 songs, 67 min — the album plays once, from a stove-warmed kissaten to goodnight, Otaru. ＊ーーーーーーーーーーーーーー＊ ✔️ Subscribe for new City Pop music!
