Creates music using chiptune , 8-bit sound (pico-pico sound) used by family computers and game boys. In addition to chiptune songs, songs that combine vocals , chiptunes , and other instruments are also being produced.

While there are many vocal songs of their own, they feature music with effects such as vocoders . My current activity is mainly on the Internet, where myspace , muzie , and Nico Nico Douga are used to produce, present, and distribute music.

In addition to producing his own music, he also provides music to other artists and works as an arranger .

From September 2010, the base of activities will be moved from Yamaguchi Prefecture to Tokyo. Since around October 2010, Ustream has been broadcast every Wednesday from 23:00 (as of 2011, irregular broadcasts).

In recent years, there have been many opportunities to make songs other than chiptunes, so if you want to specialize in chiptunes, you should work as a “chip-style”.

In 2014, under the conditions of PV and CD production and holding a one-man event , he collected funds of less than 1.5 million yen on crowdfunding , and started activities in the band he had hoped for before.
