Ongaku! Project is an online j-pop fanmix group which focuses mainly on the music of Hello!Project. Affectionately known as 'O!P', the project was formed in January 2005 and with the introduction of our first generation of members on 14 February 2005, saw the birth of the first five groups to the project (Megami Melody, Hanamoni, Ichigo Kaisei, Danjo Kyoku and ACE). Production work commenced shortly after the creation of the groups and on 19 March 2005, the first O!P release was made with Dillpop's solo cover of Goto Maki's Sayonara 'Tomodachi ni wa Naritakunai no'.
The Groups
There are currently 4 main groups to O!P, each with a different theme. Megami Melody : Goddess-themed, produced by Rei-chan. Hanamoni : Floral-themed, produced by Suki. Ichigo Kaisei : Fruit-themed, produced by Yukari. ViyuMEN : Noodle-themed, produced by Rei-chan.
You may find out more about our groups and their respective members by visiting our website at ongakuproject.com.
In addition to individual group releases, O!P does regular all-O!P projects where all members, irrespective of their groups, will combine talents in producing one massive all-O!P release. Examples of these are the O!P summer shuffles as well as the Christmas/winter releases. A full list of all O!P releases can be found on our website.
Hello!Ongaku
In addition to producing fanmix releases, O!P also produces our very own radio show in the form of Hello!Ongaku. Making its debut on 26 February 2005, the show was broadcast 'live' on-air with members of the project taking turns every week to play host on the show. This continued all through till 17 February 2007 when the show was forced to go on hiatus due to a lack of serviceable radio server. There are plans currently underway for the show to be brought back in the form of podcasts but in the meantime, streams of past Hello!Ongaku episodes can be tuned into at the H!O radio player found in the 'Radio' section on the O!P website.
