Gift

The pop band "balconny", based in Fukuoka, Japan, has started distributing music. Their first single "Gift" is a stylish and funky song with a city pop style.

"yohei nishi", who produces most of the band's songs, has started working under the new name "westman8". In 2025, as a new attempt, they rearranged their original songs using AI. Balconny is known for creating "good old Japanese pop songs", and while keeping the lyrics the same, they have reborn them in a completely different arrangement, creating a new worldview.

The song "Gift" was created more than 15 years ago, and the original song is a mellow and passionate song in the style of Latin bossa nova. This time, it has been rearranged and remade into city pop. It is a song that gives you a sense of 80's city pop.

In addition, AI has some trouble pronouncing Japanese words, but they have left them as they are. I think that this is also "the flavor of AI". I hope many people will listen to it.
