Okay, I didn't know where to put this, since I don't think he's with Bemani anymore but I put it here anyway because I think people know him best for his Bemani works.

Since most of these threads have a slight introduction:

Tatsuya Shimizu [清水達也 Shimizu Tatsuya], more commonly known as Tatsh is a Japanese music composer that is known for his compositions for the beatmania IIDX series. His first Bemani project was in 2004 on beatmania IIDX 10th style. He has worked with Junko Hirata, also known as Ayane, in some of his songs under the name platoniX and has also composed under the names dj Killer, Xephia and 白虎 . He has also worked with Kanako Hoshino on various songs such as タシカナモノ, 月光 and 白幻. In beatmania IIDX 12th style HAPPY SKY, he collaborated with dj TAKA to create the song 冥 . Tatsh was not heard of after IIDX DistorteD and there were claims he had left Bemani.

On the 17th of August 2008, Tatsh released his first solo album entitled ‘Tatsh Music Collection -I-‘.



Yeah, Yeah, It's not the best inroduction, but who cares.

Anyway, What do you guys think of him?
I love his music I think it's fantastic, especially Sphere and the stuff he's done with Kanako Hoshino.

Cybertravels looks like Zenius-II-mother... it's reeeeally nice Cyber Opus 

[Azzy2121]

I love Cybertravels too, I still don't think it's the best song on the album though, I think that's tied between Liberate~赤い海の夜明け~ and Lamentation.

[Hatsukoi]

really like Red Zone and Xepher. A few other songs are good, especially the ones with Junko Hirata under platonix

Tatsh is now officially a doujin artist. Seriously. The worst part is that he isn't with Konami anymore, so there isn't anybody telling him to what standard his work should be. :p His Music Collection isn't as... tightly produced as his previous work, but it's Tatsh so melodically it's interesting enough but  iasjdiajsdiajd Miku. :/ You'd think he'd be able to find a half decent singer but no, he needs to make a profit so he ended up using Vocaloid.

So...everything in that new album of his are sung by whatever that is?   I thought he was well known to do pretty much everything with Ayane...I doubt he would have to spend much money if he just worked with her for his new stuff...

Vocaloid is a computer generated voice that you can tweak yourself to what you want. I think the girl has a name but I can't remember it.


At first I didn't like the fact he'd used Vocaloid but after a while I got used to it, but I don't think it goes very well with Liberate, but I still love the song.

[SUPER STAR MITSURU]

Hatsune Miku. I don't really like Vocaloids to be honest - too artificial and most people don't even know how to use her properly and most people who fanboy over them would probably change their mind if they know how hard it is to use it because they're all in it for the character designs.

But hey, it's popular and Tatsh needs to make it make money, haha.

He did mention in his blog that he played at Ayane's latest concert though.

[Azzy2121]

I want a longer piece of whatever's at the end of the Liberate~赤い海の夜明け~ Instrumental.
But this is only Music Collection -I- so I hope there's a Music Collection -II-. And he should use Ayane as vocalist, or Kanako... but she probably wouldn't.

That's what i wanted to hear, thanks anettai.

[Azzy2121]

Maybe Ayane is working with him because he's worked with her on Hyper Moe Trance 2.
Just a thought.
