This was a year when many wonderful songs by female soloists were released. It was Utada Hikaru’s 20th anniversary, but it also saw a new wave of female soloists, like Aimyon, DAOKO, and Koresawa. In the solo songs by AiNA THE END of BiSH and Sato Chiaki of Kinoko Teikoku, you could see a different character of their voices. There was also the influence of hip hop on new singer-songwriters like NakamuraEmi and iri. The voice actresses also can’t be missed. This playlist is not only about the voices and messages, but the sound of the music as well.
