Award-winning Japanese producer, composer, and guitarist with credits spanning major artists, international collaborations, and million-stream releases.

In 2013, I worked on a song that won the prestigious "Nihon Record Taisho," Japan's equivalent of a Grammy Award, under my pen names Tomoki Okazawa and nakaokaan.

I provide high-quality productions tailored to your needs.

My work includes collaborations with artists from Japan and overseas, as well as releases that have accumulated millions of streams across major platforms.

In an era where music can be created faster than ever, I focus on bringing character, emotion, and human performance into every production through real instruments, vintage synthesizers, and analog-inspired workflows.

Tomo is a very personable and did a great job at mixing. As usual I create tracks that are somewhat unconventional so it a pleasant suprise when someone 'gets' the concept. I shall be returning very soon and I would strogly recommend exploring Tomo's production skills and musical abilities, elements of which I experienced during mixing and shall be exploring to the max as soon as possible.
