Tokyo, Japan
I am a Japanese composer who has produced over 20 video game soundtracks, specializing in Japanese-style cute and anime songs. (Of course, I am also skilled at composing general songs.) I am capable of handling all aspects of music production, including Japanese lyrics writing, singing, composing, and arrangement. Recently, I have been receiving many requests for Japanese lyric writing, singing, and top-line melody creation. I have worked with companies and artists from the United States, Poland, Australia, and France. In addition to music, I am also capable of performing cute voice acting. I am also proficient in Japanese calligraphy and can create calligraphy logos for businesses. As a Japanese native living in Tokyo, I have worked as a tour guide in Akihabara and as a maid cafe clerk, making me especially knowledgeable about Japan's otaku culture. I look forward to working with you all !!

Overview: Transform your audio from good to exceptional. I'm a professional audio engineer who specializes in making podcasts, audiobooks, and video content sound crisp, clear, and professionally polished. And I'm also a music composer. My background spans from intimate podcast conversations to major film productions. I've mixed and mastered audio for two theatrically released films: a Japanese Wagyu beef documentary (also distributed on Amazon Prime) where I handled both the complete audio post-production and composed the original score, and a dramatic feature shot entirely in Cuba. I've also composed ambient soundscapes for medical clinics using psychedelic therapy – work that requires both technical precision and deep sensitivity to the listener's experience. Uniquely, I also bring specialized expertise in AI-assisted music composition and audio editing. Having published a book on AI-driven composition techniques, I integrate cutting-edge AI tools to offer innovative, tailored approaches to audio production that set my work apart from conventional methods. What sets me apart is my meticulous attention to detail and problem-solving approach. Whether it's eliminating stubborn wind noise from an outdoor interview, balancing audio levels across multiple speakers, or crafting the perfect sonic atmosphere, I use industry-leading tools like ProTools and iZotope RX to deliver results that exceed expectations. I believe great audio shouldn't just sound professional – it should be invisible, allowing your content to shine through without distraction. What I Do Best: * Podcast & Audiobook Editing: Complete audio enhancement, seamless editing, and professional polish * Film & Video Audio: Mixing, mastering, and Foley work for any scale production * Audio Restoration: Removing wind, hum, distortion, clicks, and other unwanted sounds * Music & Sound Design: Original compositions, background music, corporate sound logos, and ambient tracks * Mastering: Final polish for albums, podcasts, and any audio content Recent Work Highlights: Theatrical Film Productions – Complete audio post-production for two theatrically released films, including composing the full original score for a Japanese documentary (also on Amazon Prime) Therapeutic Audio Design – Hour-long ambient compositions for medical therapy sessions, with measurable positive impact on patient experience Podcast & Audiobook Enhancement – Consistently delivering broadcast-quality audio through advanced restoration and careful attention to detail Ready to elevate your audio?
