Natsumero for the Soul: Nostalgic Melodies from Japan with SANA

Copyright restrictions pose a challenge for our channel. YouTube automatically monetizes the songs in this mix, directing ad revenue to copyright owners. This means we can’t control the ads or their frequency. As a result, 99.9% of MAJ’s yearly viewership generates no income for us due to copyrighted music. MAJ’s mission is to share high-quality vinyl-only mixes. To continue, we need support to maintain our studio and cover expenses.

Her dynamic sets are grounded in her love of world music but transcend genres and time, creating unforgettable and boundary-breaking dance floors. ⁠"Natsumero" means nostalgic melodies in Japanese, and that is the essence I tried to capture with this set, focusing on sounds that brought me joy as a child, also with some element of saudade, as you can hear in some of the lyrics.
