Profile Information
Parquets (パーキッツ) was the duo of music composer Tsugumi Kataoka and lyricist/vocalist Manami Fujino. They have been producing songs for various anime, like Bomberman Jetters and Mirumo de Pon, amongst other projects since the early 1990s. In a rarity in BEMANI, Parquets composed exclusively for pop'n music, and their music has almost never been transplanted into any other BEMANI series (the one exception so far being Ping×Pong×Dash).
Both members also have contributed to the pop'n music series collaborating with other BEMANI artists, and Kataoka has also provided songs as a solo artist.
Parquets was dissolved after a live event in June 2009, when Manami Fujino decided to take an indefinite hiatus.
