Jelajahi sheet piano oleh 原口沙輔 di Zen Virtual Piano. 原口沙輔 (Sasuke Haraguchi) is a music producer who says he began fiddling with GarageBand on his father's computer at age 5. Haraguchi took a particular interest in Apple's preset loops. Warner Music Japan signed him in 2018, and until 2021, when he left the label, his J-pop singles came out under the alias Sasuke. The preset loops that caught his attention at age 5 and the J-pop singles released as Sasuke may point to two quite different ways of making music in his story. After becoming independent, Haraguchi went through a year-long period of writer's block in which he couldn't write his own music. He calls that time "like a blank canvas." He even forced himself onto an Abema TV dating show to shake things up, and he says it did nothing and that he then came close to giving up. A new outlook led him to give up the moniker and put out music under his real name, hoping listeners would look to his art rather than his image and identity. The year of writer's block and the switch from the alias Sasuke to his real name may point to a stretch of real change for Haraguchi. Haraguchi performed at the closing ceremony of the 2020 Summer Paralympics in Tokyo. In the two years after that, his musical style began to shift towards a more electronic and experimental sound. His music is predominantly electronic, and Acetone was made almost entirely on a computer with little involvement of traditional instruments. He says he loves to take things out of their original context and slice them up, and that he has always wanted to make drum material better and more original than the many sample packs that exist. The turn toward electronic and experimental sound and his stated love of slicing things up may suggest a common thread in how he treats sound. Vocaloid, the singing-synthesizer technology, became his tool, and he created Hito Mania, a viral dance-pop track full of screams that feels disorienting. Through one-off tracks and a collaboration with Yuri, whose manager reached out hoping for something different in the pop sphere, his work has begun to show up everywhere. In 2024 he formed the future funk duo FM Towns with fellow producer De De Mouse. In 2025 Forbes Japan recognized him in the Entertainment & Sports category of its 30 Under 30 list. A viral Vocaloid track and a duo with another producer may hint at Haraguchi working in more than one setting. The Forbes Japan recognition and the work with Yuri may suggest Haraguchi's name reaching beyond his own releases.
