February Report: Chosen from a total of 84 entries, the No. 1 song is "Haru to Nari" by Atarayo

Listeners sent in comments such as, "The title and lyrics are excellent," "I've come to love the worldview of the songs. I can see that the spoken lines in the middle have meaning," and "The vocal stability is impressive as expected. The band's sound is also solid. This balance is unique to Atarayo."
The new song by "Atarayo," which was chosen as No. 1 for the second time, first catches the ear with its interesting title, and its diverse melodic development makes it a work with clever touches that keep the listener from getting bored, such as the impression changing between the entry week and the selection week due to the different airplay lengths. In a month of fierce competition where many artists who are regulars in the monthly No. 1 or TOP 5 rankings entered, this song felt like it stood a head above the rest. On the other hand, "Meliclet," which ranked No. 5 in the TOP 5 where regular artists were chosen, is also an act to watch in the future.

Atarayo is a four-piece pop-rock band formed in 2020, consisting of Hitomi on vocals, Marcy on guitar, Taro on bass, and Sota on drums. The band name is derived from the archaic word "Atarayo," which means "a night so beautiful that one regrets it ending."
True to their name, they have gained support by expressing delicate emotions such as the silence of the night, lingering regrets, and unforgettable memories of love through clear, melancholic vocals, emotionally swelling band sounds, and dramatic arrangements that skillfully traverse between stillness and motion. Since their songs posted on YouTube spread through word-of-mouth and social media, they have attracted attention, especially among the younger generation. They are an artist who continues to increase their presence through lyrics that realistically depict the contemporary perspective and performances that create a sense of unity at live shows.
