Uri Nakayama

**Uri Nakayama** is a Japanese musician crafting dreamy, genre-blurring tunes that feel like flipping through a scrapbook of global sounds. Known for a playful mix of Shibuya-kei whimsy, lo-fi bedroom pop, and jazz-inflected beats, their tracks—like the bubbly "tempura," shimmering "くらげ" (Jellyfish), or the nostalgic "おそい光 / ホイアン"—stitch together everyday moments and faraway daydreams. Releases like "NEW HAPPY" and "カルデラ" (Caldera) showcase their knack for balancing quirky electronica with warm acoustic textures, creating a sound that’s both cozy and curiously adventurous. While Nakayama keeps a low profile personally, their music speaks volumes through its collage of city-pop breeziness, glitchy experimentation, and lyrics that drift between mundane poetry and surreal charm.
