From the creative collaboration between OdAkEi, a member of MNNF (Mo No No Fu), a label/artist group dedicated to promoting world-class creativity based on the concept of “From Japan to the World,” and SARUKANI, the beat box crew ranked second worldwide, comes a brainchild they are proud to release, “9 Lives.“
All of the sounds in this song are composed entirely of human voices, challenging the limits of what is possible with the human voice.The song was first developed as a basic sound idea by SO-SO, the leader of SARUKANI, and Ryosuke “Dr.R” Sakai, a producer at MNNF who has worked on songs for many artists in Japan and abroad. Then, each member of SARUKANI added their own sounds and ideas to complete the song. It is a song with a stunning sound by a group of creators with their finger on the pulse of hit music in the world.
Having already built an enormous following online, with more than 1 million subscribers on YouTube, 730k TikTok followers, and countless Spotify playlist additions for his recently unveiled offerings, Japanese rapper, singer, and actor OdAkEi has now teamed up with world renowned beat box crew SARUKANI to deliver the explosive new single ‘9 Lives’.
Despite its heavy and blistering production, all sounds within ‘9 Lives’ have been created using human voices to make this brilliantly vivid listening experience. Broad and kaleidoscopic throughout, the final result was brought together by Ryosuke “Dr.R” Sakai, a producer for Japanese artist/label group MNNF, who has worked on songs for many artists in Japan and throughout the world.
