## Kyoka
Segare Ijiri translates to "Teasing My Son"
A trained pianist who had turned to electronic music after she discoverd the Roland MC-505 drum machine and released her first album as Kyoka called UFUNFUNFUFU (which is great). She moved to Raster Noton after some releases and via this you can probably imagine what her music sounds like....

Seemingly BIS was also already very much all in about DIY culture and tried to organize a professional idol group by themselves.
We're slowly moving into dweeb territory here so I'll leave it at that. The video is not majorly interesting and in the end it's mostly about one cis man figure in the idol business making them do very extra PR stunts. Still this seems to be a pretty crazy background to be coming from.
This whole Channel is amazing and has a lot of great music
