I say it's AI. No photos of the musicians. No connection with anything else. Quality so high that they should be famous but are completely unknown. All of the catalog released at about the same time. AI.

Is it live or is it memories or is it AI?

I’m going with AI. There's a clear pattern to the music making it feel a bit cookie cutter. Starts with a catchy tune and then brings in the percussion beats.

It seems that the percussion beats enter n seconds into the song, the same n seconds for all the ones I listened to.
 
If not AI, they might as well be.
A weakness of AI songs is the lyrics, which I can not understand in these. AI lyrics seem to piece together a string of stand-alone statements with the same theme. They don't have a story or narrative quality.

They're singing in Japanese.

Right. I'll leave it to anyone who knows Japanese to evaluate the lyrics.
 
There might be a translation service you could post it to that could translate it to english. ChatGPT might be able as well.

My grandson speaks but its very difficult to understand what he’s saying. I had Chatgpt microphone open and it transcribed what he said. I’m not sure its a repeatable experiment or it actually can get past accents and garbled speech.

One time he was mad at grandma and said I don’t wike you old wady. We really laughed at that one.

A few of us have come across other music or songs of that kind of quality, AND were made using artificial intelligence.

The only one I know as an example is the country song, "Walk My Walk", that recently won an award and was AI-generated. There was a big uproar about it a couple of months ago. Its lyrics seemed to me to be just a string of separate C&W sad statements.
