Title: The Etsuko Nishio Tape
Post by: DoctorDoodle19 on June 02, 2026, 04:22:44 PM
In the land of Lostwave, there is a tape featuring what I believe is a NSFW video of Japanese actress Etsuko Nishio.
While this may seem like it has nothing to do with Library Music, it has everything to do with it.
Because the tape features 11 songs from Japanese music libraries.

This is the full tape track listing:
youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtAcLFuOtdpCIbK-RzEr6fxo2PGsZhrFh

Most of the songs have been found, and some found by members of this forum, but there are still 4 unknown songs, and they're most likely on an obscure Japanese music library CD.
Checking places like Yahoo! Japan could result in finding these CDs. I would bet all of the unknown are from the same music library, or perhaps two.

I will listen the ones found and for the ones not found, I will use placeholder names, as what I think the songs might be called.
For the sound factory tracks, you can buy the tracks individually on DL Music.

Track 1: Studio Com - Miss Me Please
Track 2: Sound Factory - Back In Town
Track 3: Unknown (maybe called "Sailing"?)
Track 4: Studio Com - U.S. Highway Star
Track 5: Sound Factory - New Days
Track 6: Unknown (maybe called "Destiny"?)
Track 7: Unknown (maybe called "Paradise"?)
Track 8: Sound Factory - Perpetuity
Track 9: Sound Factory - Ocean Road
Track 10: Sound Factory - Fly To Me
Track 11: Unknown (maybe called "Start Again"?)

In the “Lost Wave” community, the only thing I really want to track down is probably the remaining four English songs on this tape.

A major reason I’ve kept buying Japanese music library CDs is that I’m hoping to find the music from this tape.

Japan is a country that takes music copyright very seriously, so they would definitely have used music from a music library like this on the tape. The few tracks I’ve found so far confirm this

But as for the remaining unknown tracks from that label, I have absolutely no clue. It might be some very obscure label—at the very least, there are no websites offering online previews. My only option is to buy CDs that were released back in the day.

Plus, these four tracks are all performed by the same group of singers, so they must be from the same label—maybe even the same album.
