Namsan Tower Lights

Out September 4, 2026

An album made in 2026 by someone who lived and breathed '60s–'70s music. Old yet new, unfamiliar yet familiar.

What the album says

This album is a record of two Japanese musicians living between Korea and Japan — their everyday life in Seoul. Not a tourist's gaze, but the gaze of people for whom Seoul has already become home. To them, Namsan Tower isn't a sight to visit; it's the landmark in their neighborhood.

So there is humor here — not forced jokes, but the natural laughter that grows from living together. And there are serious moments too: a melody dedicated to a friend who died young, the feeling of not knowing where home is, a love song an old couple sings.

What makes it singular
  1. 01

    An album by someone who absorbed '60s–'70s group sound into his very body

  2. 02

    An album where Korean and Japanese exist as equals — reinterpretation, not translation

  3. 03

    Songs that came straight from the two's daily life, not a planning meeting

  4. 04

    Korea–Japan exchange in reverse — two Japanese in Seoul absorbing Korean music to make their own
