RELEASE DESCRIPTION

Junk Fujiyama, who continues to lead the contemporary city pop scene, released his first full cover album Shokeitoshi City Pop Covers in March 2024. Following this, he released digital singles such as “Natsu no Mermaid,” “Tokyo Highway Disco Drive,” and most recently, “Wonder History” on February 19. The new song is a groovy track featuring his expansive vocals and an emotional atmosphere, with an 80s-inspired sound and addictive uplifting synth riffs. It was composed by Ryuta Sakamoto, the producer, arranger, and bassist known for his work as bandmaster for Shikao Suga and for contributing to popular songs by Junk Fujiyama such as “Ano Sora no Mukougawa e,” “To The Sky,” and “Kaze ni Nari.” The lyrics and track production were handled by Juki Kamiya, a sound creator from Island etc., who has been collaborating with Junk in recent years.
