A PLAYLIST for ARTS&SCIENCE by RYUICHI SAKAMOTO

Ryuichi Sakamoto, who passed away this year on March 28, left a playlist selected for ARTS&SCIENCE.
This playlist is very important to all of us at ARTS&SCIENCE. It reminds us of the close relationship we had with him before he passed away. In memory of Ryuichi Sakamoto we are making the special playlist public. Starting June 29th, you can listen to the “Ryuichi Sakamoto ‘ARTS&SCIENCE’” playlist on Spotify. We hope you enjoy the music selected by “Kyojyu” (Sakamoto’s nick-name, meaning professor in Japanese).


“As we age, we lean towards clothes that are comfortable and easy to wear, while still being stylish.
Like Steve Jobs, I've found myself wanting to wear the same thing every day.
For the past fifteen years, I've had a fondness for shirts from ARTS&SCIENCE.
It's safe to say I wear almost nothing else.
I'm particularly fond of their stand-collar shirts.
I wonder how many I own…

Sonya, who leads ARTS&SCIENCE, approached me with a request:
“Could you create a playlist for our shop's background music?”
Delighted, I immediately replied with a “Of course” via LINE.

I didn’t want to get in the way of the shapes and colors of the clothing and accessories.
It shouldn’t feel too cold or too stiff.
It shouldn’t get in the way of those who worked at the shop.

When I make playlists, I usually leave out my own songs (it makes me uncomfortable), but Sonya insisted I include some.
A bit reluctant, I selected a few.
ARTS&SCIENCE has a substantial number of ardent fans, so I'm slightly anxious about whether they'll appreciate this playlist.”

March 7th, 2023

—— Ryuichi Sakamoto (Musician/Artist)

In consideration of sustainability, we have rethought and changed our packaging materials.

At the moment, we are gradually shifting the materials used for packaging your purchased products to rice resin, which has less impact on the environment. Rice Resin is a domestic biomass plastic derived from rice that is inedible. A new technology is used to upcycle old rice, crushed and damaged rice, and other forms rice that is not suitable for human consumption or as animal feed and is otherwise discarded. Because rice resin plastic is made from plants, it holds carbon-neutral properties that does not affect the increase or decrease of carbon dioxide.

Arts & Science has been committed to environmental initiatives by using cloth bags for its shopping bags since the beginning. In recent years, we have been trying to be resource and become more environmentally friendly. We have developing upcycled products using leftover fabric, changed the strings of our clothing tags to undyed organic cotton that is recycled, downsized the size and type of tag tags themselves, and have provided spare buttons and fabric available to purchase when needed by customers. We are committed to being resource and environmentally friendly.

Arts & Science's flagship shop for women 〈Arts & Science Aoyama〉has reopened after renovation.
