Biography

[edit]

Originating fromAomori Prefecture, Miki Furukawa placed an advertisement in a local magazine seeking fellow musicians in 1995, leading to the formation of the rock band Supercar.[2] Supercar, which released its influential debut albumThree Out Change in 1998,[3] has been characterized as having "almost foundational importance to 21st century Japanese indie rock".[4] After a successful, ten-year career, Supercar disbanded in 2005 in order for the members to pursue different interests.

In 2006 Furukawa released her first solo album,Mirrors, featuring a mixture of guitar-based rock songs and electronic dance-pop.Bondage Heart (2008) pointed in a new direction, with heavy influences frompost-punk,psychedelic rock and noise, whereasVery (2010) was a mostly electropop-oriented record. In December 2009, software developerAH Software used voice samples from Furukawa to create theVocaloid voice librarySF-A2 Miki. In 2011, Miki Furukawa and former Supercar bandmateKoji Nakamura formed the band calledLama. Lama jump-started their formation with a single entitled "Spell", which has been used as an opening theme for the animeNo. 6. The single "Fantasy" was used as the ending theme for the animeUn-Go.
