A new charity compilation album aimed at supporting recovery efforts from the devastating 2025 wildfires in Los Angeles is set to be released on Saturday, June 7, exclusively via Bandcamp.
Organized by dublab.jp, the Japanese branch of the LA-based internet radio station dublab, the album is titled “dublab.jp presents A Charity Compilation in Aid of the 2025 LA Wildfires -resilience-.” It features 38 tracks from Japanese artists whose work has been influenced by Los Angeles’s rich musical culture. Among the contributors are Yuuga, Takako Minekawa, and Wang Hui Tu Jing—a unit formed by Hiroki Chiba, known for his performances with artists such as Yusuke Aranouchi (cero) and the Shuta Hasunuma Philharmonic.
The compilation comes in response to the massive wildfires that struck Los Angeles in January 2025. The fires burned for over three weeks, damaging more than 18,000 structures and causing economic losses estimated at over $250 billion. The impact extended deeply into the city’s cultural communities, including its thriving music and film scenes.
All profits from the release will be donated directly to wildfire victims through dublab’s main office in Los Angeles. The project stands as a testament to the solidarity between Japanese and LA-based artists, united by a shared creative spirit and a desire to help rebuild a community in crisis.
