Deputy Editor of RAG MUSIC. JFC-certified fact-checker. I’m Sasashina, a mom currently raising an elementary schooler and a preschooler. During my student years at Kyoto College of Science and Technology, I studied a wide range of fields including sound, lighting, and video technology, building a foundation in comprehensive stage production and creative expression. After graduation, I joined a music production company, where I still work, consistently building experience in production and engaging in a variety of music-centered tasks. Currently, I mainly handle articles for children, drawing on what I’ve learned about parenting and what I feel and discover through daily interactions with my kids. I hope my work can be of help to you, even in a small way!

I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Fast-talking performance

[Aoi Yuki] Shocking! Shows off rapid-fire speech… how many characters can she read in 30 seconds?

Fast-talking performance

For those who don’t have a go-to bit for events like year-end parties, how about tongue twisters? If it goes well, you might even show off your clear diction and good pronunciation.

Even with classics everyone knows—like “nama mugi, nama gome, nama tamago,” “aomakigami, akamakigami, kimakigami,” or “kaeru pyokopyoko mi-pyokopyoko, awasete pyokopyoko roppyokopyoko”—if you articulate every sound cleanly and raise the quality, you might even be able to create a groove like an a cappella rap.
