SYNOPSIS

Arriving in the heart of the city pop boom, Magical showcases Junko Ohashi’s smooth, commanding vocals framed by glossy ’80s production, funk-tinged basslines, and shimmering synths. The album drifts between danceable grooves and silky ballads, perfectly capturing the cosmopolitan energy of bubble-era Japan. Both stylish and soulful, Magical stands as one of Ohashi’s definitive works—an album that embodies the elegance and urban allure of mid-’80s city pop.
