A sound producer based in Japan and originally from Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture. After starting street dance in childhood and becoming deeply immersed in 2000s US Hip-Hop and R&B, he began his career as a DJ. He was subsequently inspired by the experimental beat music scene—centered in Los Angeles—and began producing his own music. He champions a unique form of "dance music" that transcends genre boundaries while remaining rooted in Hip-Hop. Renowned for his dynamic live performances, he performs as both a beat-live artist and a DJ at hotspots across the country. Additionally, as the leader of the creative collective "VIBEPAK," he spearheads cultural initiatives that foster a close fusion of dance and music. Since releasing his album *EGO TRIP* via the prestigious OILWORKS Rec. in 2019, he has continued to expand the scope of his activities; this includes collaborations with domestic and international artists (such as ZIN, maco marets, Ryo Takaiwa, and NAGAN SERVER), sound design for numerous advertisements (particularly in the fashion sector), work with the unit Dry Echoes (Hikaru Tanaka × FKD), and organizing the event series "EPICK."
