new jpop
Pop music with Japanese lyrics.
The concept is unique: Non-Japanese artists producing J-POP music, with an electro pop feel. Welcome to our newly imagined music genre–the New JPOP.
As pioneers in this new genre, we know how hard it is to speak the Japanese language fluently, let alone break into the music industry in Japan. But we continue to pursue our dream of writing and producing our own atypical J-POP.
Our motto in Japan, roughly translated, is “Electro J-POP made in Canada”. This is the New JPOP.
