The Next Generation of Online Entertainment
Thanks to Indie Vtubers entering the live streaming industry, Vtubers are becoming next-generation talent in the entertainment world not only in Japan, but all over the world. As a musician and producer, Geoffrey helps these aspiring creatives enter a new realm of media through music. He has had the opportunity to guide wonderful Indie Vtubers so far and would like to continue to support them in the future.
Asymmetry- Aru
Aru wanted a song that was “positive and upbeat, but also very ethereal,” and gave me some great reference tracks to look at, such as Hoshimachi Suisei’s Stellar Stellar and Bluerose. Focusing on bringing a J-Pop feel with digital elements, I began writing Japanese lyrics, drafting the song, and working with talented guitarist @KamikazeBitch to create an anthem championing differences despite the desire to fit into the crowd.
Shell- Takagai Tearschu
Tearschu was working on an island themed debut album as part of her persona’s backstory. As such, referencing the track 「鼓動」by Japanese idol duo “Femme Fatale”, I weaved a combination of melodic percussion and thematic samples to create the feel of friends sitting on the beach reminiscing times long past. This song marked my first foray into the Indie Vtuber community, and was met with overwhelming success. It was performed live in Australia in Summer 2022.
