Harukaze Record is a five-piece band formed by musical companions captivated by vocalist Haru Ikeda's enchanting voice. With lyrics that resonate with daily melancholies, Haru's delicate yet profound singing, and the unique instrumental approaches of each member, the band has quickly garnered attention from music lovers with a refined taste. In 2023, the band officially began after the members graduated from their specialized music school. Their debut single 'Idler,' released in January 2024, brought them into the spotlight, followed by the release of their first EP Harukaze ni Fureru in June. Drawing inspiration from '80s and '90s city pop while infusing a modern sensibility, the EP stands out for it's polished pop sound, beautifully blending nostalgia with contemporary elements. The music video for the track 'Blue Light,' despite being self-produced, gained significant attention, hitting 10,000 views within a month of it's release. In October 2024, they released their second single, 'Harushuu,' along with the B-side track 'Mokuseika. ' https://youtu. Be/i0ZXJGaN974?si=02PYhIb5LgC2jCbD
