Help me find a word

[toc]

So I’m looking for the Japanese word for “play/put on” in the following contexts:

“This bar only plays music from the 80s.”

or

“Can I put on/play my favourite album for you?”

Dictionaries have not helped me. Any ideas?

edit

btw the sentence I’m trying to translate is:
“in my house, pop music plays on repeat”

any punts?

I only found 弾く - to play piano/ guitar

Maybe it’s just 音楽がある

[jjatria]

Maybe 「再生」? That at least is the word for “play” as in “play a song recording”.

[toc]

really? 再 meaning “re-” or “again” and 生 meaning “life”? the word “reborn” comes to mind…

thanks though

edit

you’re right, according to the japanese dictionary

録音,録画したものを機械にかけてもとの音画像を出すこと。

but i guess that means to “replay”?

To put on music is 音楽をかける: How do you say "to put on some music" in Japanese? | HiNative

thanks！

i wonder how to use it as an intransitive verb though？

for example, in my sentence:

“in my house, pop music plays on repeat”

うちで、ポップをかけてある？

[Leebo]

That’s passive.

音楽が流される
Music is played (sense of broadcast/distributed)

[toc]

In the context of a radio station playing music, your sentence works well, but for playing music at home?

In English I guess the usage is quite odd.

i’m wondering if I can’t use 出る

音楽が出ている

[Leebo]

It’s the same either way. It means to play music, but not like personally with your hands.

ah, ok. thanks a bunch

yes, i think you’ve got it. i found this example in my japanese dictionary

音響装置から出た音や声が，いつもそこで聞こえているようにする。「あの店ではいつもバロック音楽を―している」

which would imply i can use it in active voice but omit the subject

うちでは、いつもポップを流している

[Leebo]

Yeah, I think that would seems right.

Then again, running it by a native is always better.

i did and you’re right! according to my native friend:

“can i put on some music?”

音楽をかけてもいいか

“music is playing”

音楽を流している

お疲れ様です！
