Artist Information

Profile

Making his first appearance in the very first iteration of pop'n music, Kiyotaka Sugimoto is one of the oldest names in BEMANI. From 1998 to 2002, Sugimoto was very active in both pop'n music and the original beatmania series as a composer, vocalist, lyricist, and even as a sound director. He also occasionally appeared in other series such as beatmania IIDX and KEYBOARDMANIA. He is known to be friends with Reo Nagumo and the two have even worked together on a few songs.

Kiyotaka left KONAMI in 2001, with air being his last song as an in-house artist, and pop'n music 6 his last BEMANI title where he was a staff member. He continued to appear in BEMANI, mostly in pop'n music, for a decade after. He has since recently returned to write new songs for pop'n music peace.

Following his departure, Kiyotaka started solo live activities as ORANGENOISE SHORTCUT in Tokyo. In 2005, Fujitaka Sugita joined the band, until the band was disbanded in 2008. Kiyotaka continues performing as a solo artist, and also as a guest member to other bands like ROUND TABLE.

Trivia

  • Kiyotaka's Original Cedar alias originates from his last name "Sugi" (杉, Japanese for "Cedar") and "moto" (もと, Japanese for "Original").
