Pacific Breeze: Japanese City Pop, AOR and Boogie 1976–1986 is a 2019 compilation album. The album was released by Light in the Attic Records on May 3, 2019, as the third part of their Japan Archival Series, starting with Even a Tree Can Shed Tears: Japanese Folk & Rock 1969–1973. Pacific Breeze: Japanese City Pop, AOR and Boogie 1976–1986 was part of the American Light in the Attic Records label's reissuing of Japanese music. This release was a follow-up to releases by artists such as Haruomi Hosono, and a Kankyo Ongaku collection of 1980s ambient music.
The music on the album was compiled and produced by Andy Cabic, Zach Cowie, a DJ and music supervisor, Yosuke Kitazawa, who oversees Light in the Attic's Japanese music series, Mark "Frosty" McNeill, founder of the online radio station Dublab, and Matt Sullivan. The music on the album has been described as city pop, a slick commercial sound of music from late 1970s and early 1980s Japan. Although the genre is often described as being about Japan embracing an affluent consumerist lifestyle, Mark "Frosty" McNeill stated that the style is "more of a vibe classification than a collective movement." Forty years later, the genre had seen what James Hadfield of Rolling Stone described as "something of a resurgence as pop music adjusts to a new technological paradigm dominated by streaming." Kitazawa stated that there were "no restrictions on style or a specific genre that we wanted to convey with these songs, this was music made by city people, for city people."
