His mysterious tone and musicality are highly evaluated, and he also performs live, commercial music production, and music REMIX in Japan and overseas, and is now attracting the most attention from both media art and music. On March 12, 2013, he published BOOK+DVD "En-Cyclepedia ~" from Gakken. It has become an indispensable book for unraveling the current Open Reel Ensemble, including dialogues with prominent members such as Seigo Matsuoka, Yoshihide Otomo, Naruto Kikuchi, Naohiro Ukawa, zAk, Masakatsu Takagi. He has also attracted attention from the fashion world, and has been in charge of music for three seasons in a Paris collection with ISSEY MIYAKE in the fall and winter of 2012, expanding his activities. <Official Website> http://www.steamblue.net/ https://www.facebook.com/OpenReelEnsembleBraunTubeJazzBand
