Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra is marking 35 years of music with a star-studded greatest hits album, NO BORDER HITS 2025→2001 'The Best of Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra', released on March 19, 2025. The collection, curated by drummer Kin-ichi Motegi, spans the band’s illustrious career and features 51 tracks across three CDs.

The album spotlights the group’s collaborations with guest vocalists, including their latest track "Tell Me, Ouroboros" featuring Asako Miyazaki (SHISHAMO). It also highlights the NO BORDER trilogy—"Ichinichi Hana" (feat. imase & Narashino High School Brass Band), "Vague Me of Summer Days" (feat. SUPER EIGHT), and "Like Flowers Fall" (feat. Masaki Suda)—songs that encapsulate the band’s borderless musical philosophy. Additionally, the album revisits their influential early 2000s vocal trilogy: "Mekureta Orange" (feat. Takao Tajima), "Canary In The Sky" (feat. Yusuke Chiba), and "Forest Burning Beautifully" (feat. Tamio Okuda).

The collection opens with "Paradise Has No Border feat. NO BORDER ALL STARS," a re-recording of their iconic track featuring 10 wind instrumentalists, including actor Ken Watanabe, who contributes both trumpet and vocals. The album concludes with their latest song, "Haven't given up yet, have you?", reinforcing the band’s enduring presence in the music scene.
