OORUTAICHI began recording and performing in 1999, inspired
by The Residents, The Doors, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Aphex Twin
and Dancehall Reggae. Initial recordings were multi-tracked
improvisations using "real" instruments, toys and voice, evolving
to composed songs using midi triggerd instrumentation.
His first album, "YORI YOYO", was released in 2003 to acclaim by
many world musicians and
received airplay on BBC Radio. He has been profiled ina number of
Japanease magazines, and is very active in Japanease underground
music.
"YORI YOYO is Composed, played, sung, and mixed entirely by OORUTAICHI, the strong melodies, wide-ranging beats&free style chorus work create an original sound that could almost be traditonal music from a fictitous country called "OORUTAICHI". This is progressive style will be
appreciated by dance music listeners, free folk fans etc.

---Press on OORUTAICHI "MISEN Gymnastics"---
Hailing from Japan these guys don’t muck around, the even make up their language and sing whatever comes to their heads whilst
recording and underpin it with beeping, quirky melodies sounding as if played on kid’s instruments - a loose percussive disco rhythm
tries to keep everything togeter a bit but stumbles from time to time - cute, oddball and over the top at the same time like a
Takashi Miike comedy. The IDJUT BOYS stretch the cut to a maximum disco workout and even generously treat us with a sizzling,
stripped down and abstract bonus version. (BEARFUNK)
Japanese bedroom Pro-Tools wizard Oorutaichi only plays the way-out synth-pop sounds. This is space disco that really does chuck
anything remotely earthbound out of the cockpit.
"Misen Gymnastics" takes a crisp hi-hat pulse, a touch of bongo, digital fuckery, and a synth riff that sounds like a fanfare
announcing cosmic dragons with glass confetti, and mixes them with enough whimsy to fend off Max Tundra's cronies for months.
The kiddie chorus shouts in unison between Oorutaichi's elfin verses, with deft rhythmic patterns all synched up like he rehearsed
these guys a week before pressing "record." Bent wind chimes and Fender Rhodes fill in the blank spots, while driving it all is a
bass line that curves up like it'd been warped by the sun. Underneath it all, a good, old-fashioned disco kick; the modern dance
composer refuses to die, again and again and again. (pitchfolk.com)
