Momoko Kikuchi

Momoko Kikuchi is a Japanese singer-songwriter and iconic figure in the vibrant city pop scene of the 1980s. Bursting onto the music scene in 1983 with her debut single "Blue Horizon," she quickly became known for her smooth vocals and glossy, synth-driven tracks that epitomized the era's cosmopolitan sound. Her 1986 album *Adventure* remains a cult favorite, blending funky basslines and dreamy melodies that later gained international recognition during the city pop revival. Beyond her studio work, Kikuchi’s collaborations with producers like Toshiki Kadomatsu solidified her status as a staple of Showa-era pop. While her original releases slowed after the 1990s, compilations like *Golden☆Best* and *Eternal Best* keep her retro charm alive, and modern reworks like *Night Tempo presents The Showa Groove* reintroduce her groovy tunes to new generations of listeners.
