As the wave of celebration builds around the music world icon Haruomi Hosono, a highly anticipated tribute album has been produced with Yasuharu Konishi as the instigator. The work was born from the long-running regular event "Coffee House Mona Records" at the live house mona records in Shimokitazawa, Tokyo, which Konishi has hosted for three years. Artists who have performed at the event gather for this album and each cover Hosono's songs with their individual interpretations and love
This album features Konishi alongside Wataru Sawabe (Skirt), Masahiro Naoe, Kosuke Kaneda (THE Love Ningen), Naoki Ito, Tetsurō Yafune, INO hidefumi, John & Paul, YOSSY LITTLE NOISE WEAVER and others—each re-constructing Hosono's work with their own sensibility and respect. Konishi contributes both a solo guitar/vocal version of "Furaibou" and a live recording of "Owari no Kisetsu" from the March 2025 live. In addition, the album captures Hosono himself performing solo guitar/vocal versions of "Hong Kong Blues" and "Koi wa Momoiro" (with MC) at the live event, preserving the atmosphere of the venue. Furthermore, the unreleased demo version of Hosono's cover of Franz Liszt's "Liebesträume" is included, making this a must-hear work for fans.
This collection—where the musical world of Haruomi Hosono and the artists who revere him converge—symbolises the long-cultivated power of connection at mona records and becomes a special tribute album that records a new chapter in the history of Japanese pop music.
Haruomi Hosono is a legendary Japanese musician, composer, and producer, known for his work in Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO), Happy End, and his solo projects that shaped modern Japanese pop, electronic, ambient, and experimental music.
“Haraiso no Ongaku” translates roughly to “Music of Paradise,” referencing Hosono’s tropical, dreamlike musical aesthetics and conceptual works.
Yes. This album is an officially produced tribute release, distributed under Coffee House Mona Records with proper licensing.
This is a tribute album, meaning it features other artists’ interpretations rather than original recordings by Haruomi Hosono himself.
Yes. From a collector’s perspective, tribute albums connected to iconic Japanese artists, especially those pressed on vinyl, are considered highly collectible, particularly when produced in limited runs.
Absolutely. The album is curated for enjoyable standalone listening, appealing to fans of ambient, pop, and experimental vinyl.
