Profile

Among the songs Akihiro composed, Umapyoi Densetsu (うまぴょい伝説), a song from Cygames' horse racing and training simulation game Uma Musume Pretty Derby (ウマ娘 プリティーダービー), has been featured in numerous Japanese media outlets and has been repeatedly performed at Japanese music shows such as the SHIBUYA NOTE and FNS Music Festival.

Trivia

  • According to Akihiro Honda himself, his Dr.Honda alias originated from his initial plan to name himself "Dj.Honda", but changed it when he found an artist using that alias existed already. His Dp.Honda alias, which he used in pop'n music, is a slight alteration of the above alias, where the "p" stands for "pop'n music".
  • Honda also did several remixes for the Nintendo Switch game Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
