Tokyo's Coolest Sound

Kumisolo (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, SoundCloud), a Japanese singer-songwriter based in Paris, has released a new third album recently, titled "My Heart Is Doki Doki Forever". Her music is reminiscent of city pop, electro-pop and techno-kayō, which she sings mainly in French, though also in Japanese and English.

Kumisolo also participated in Danish-Brazilian duo The Courettes' latest Japanese edition 7" single (released for their recent tour in January 2026), a Japanese-sung version of their song "Shake!" (original version music video). The single seems to have sold out in most shops in Japan, but it appears to still be in stock at Juno (UK) (at time of writing).

For those in Paris: Kumisolo has an upcoming show planned on April 27 at Supersonic. Details can be found here.
