iroha(sasaki)
2007 marked the first steps of Japanese producer iroha(sasaki)'s journey through the VOCALOID scene. Genre was of no concern at first: iroha(sasaki) dipped his feet into trance, techno, drum & bass, pop, and folk tracks, each highlighted with familiar voices — usually Hatsune Miku and Kagamine Rin. iroha(sasaki) still produces outstanding tunes to this day, often straying from traditional VOCALOID into background productions for VTubers, other singers, or simply instrumental works.
Here on osu!, iroha(sasaki) has been around for a long time. His classic track Meltdown found a massive audience soon after its release, which leaked into osu! in 2009 via xxheroxx's map, followed by ertyukjh010's hybrid set in 2012, and eventually ohm002's modern rendition from 2022! For any mappers with an inkling of interest in VOCALOID, iroha(sasaki) is well worth your efforts.
