Shintaro Sakamoto

Shintaro Sakamoto is a Japanese musician, singer-songwriter, and producer known for his genre-blending sound that mixes elements of psychedelic rock, city pop, and funk. Before launching his solo career, he was the frontman of the influential psych-rock band Yura Yura Teikoku, which was active from the late 1980s until its disbandment in 2010. Since going solo, Sakamoto has crafted a unique sonic world filled with groovy basslines, laid-back vocals, and a distinctively nostalgic yet futuristic atmosphere. His albums, including *How to Live with a Phantom* and *Love If Possible*, showcase his knack for smooth, offbeat melodies and rich, textured production. His music has earned a cult following both in Japan and internationally, blending vintage influences with a modern sensibility.
