Saori@destiny was a Japanese electropop and house/techno artist produced by Oonishi Terukado, who also produces Aira Mitsuki. She began performing street lives in Tokyo, Japan, in the first half of 2007, and was signed with D-topia Entertainment, releasing her first indie single that December. In March 2008 she made her “major debut” from the same label, but this time distributed by Victor Entertainment. In 2012, Saori retired from music, and it is unknown whether or not she will make a comeback in the future. Her songwriting included themes of suicide, depression, experimentation, and drugs. This contrasting sound, a young, “cute”, Japanese girl singing about dark human issues to upbeat electronica, had contributed to her underground success as an artist in Japan. She has an account on Twitter, which you can find here. Official Website: http://www.saori-destiny.com |
