Return to the electric heart of 1980s Tokyo with this eleventh installment in our City Pop journey through vintage Japan. Shibuya—the beating pulse of youth culture, fashion, and nightlife—comes alive through these carefully curated tracks that capture the district's legendary energy and sophistication.

🌃 RETRO SHIBUYA ATMOSPHERE:
Experience Shibuya at the peak of its 1980s glory—when the iconic scramble crossing was newly famous, when Tower Records dominated music culture, when Shibuya 109 was setting fashion trends, and when every night felt like the beginning of something extraordinary. This playlist embodies the ambition, energy, and limitless possibility that defined Shibuya's golden era.

🎵 WHAT IS CITY POP?
Japanese City Pop (シティポップ) emerged in the late 1970s-1980s as Japan's bubble economy boomed. This sophisticated urban sound blends funk, disco, R&B, AOR (Adult-Oriented Rock), and jazz fusion with uniquely Japanese sensibilities. Artists like Tatsuro Yamashita, Mariya Takeuchi, Anri, and Junko Yagami created the soundtrack to Tokyo's most prosperous and culturally vibrant era.
