For me, it was Mariya smiling at me from the thumbnail with the title “Plastic Love” back in 2017. I’m probably not alone with this story but I’d love to read your stories of your intro to city pop.

For me it was the excellent Pacific Breeze compilations that the record label “Light in the Attic” have released. I’m sure I would have heard some city pop songs on some mixes beforehand too, I just don’t recall anything specific.

Which one’s your favourite?

Hard call but I’ll say the first one, particularly love L.A. Night by Yasuko Agawa but there’s so many great tracks across the compilations!

Good song. Did you see they did a third one this year?

Yes I did! I’ll have to get it on vinyl
