Suzuki Keiichi

about

Keiichi Suzuki (鈴木 慶一) was born on August 28th, 1951 in Tokyo, Japan. In the 1970s, he became involved with the Japanese band Hachimitsu Pie, who released one album in 1973. Suzuki's true notoriety comes from his work with the long-lived Moonriders, who became one of Japan's most innovative rock bands. Suzuki functioned as the occasional-leader and regular singer of the band—the group's first album was in fact credited to "Keiichi Suzuki and the Moonriders"—which also included his brother Hirofumi. Suzuki will also be familiar to fans of the Yellow Magic Orchestra for his various collaborations with Yukihiro Takahashi, most notably on the material credited to The Beatniks. He was also a member of the trio Three Blind Moses. He also composed music for a number of films, including The Blind Swordsman: Zatōichi, Tokyo Godfathers, Higuchinsky's Uzumaki, and Hiroshi Shimizu's Chicken Heart. As an actor, Suzuki appeared in 1980 film; Body Drop Asphalt; Shuji Iwai's Swallowtail Butterfly and Love Letter; and other films from the late '90s and early 2000s. In America, Keiichi Suzuki is known for his eccentric music style that is best embodied in his most famous work, the music for the SNES game EarthBound ("Mother 2" in Japan). He also worked with Hip Tanaka on its NES predecessor, Mother. A few years after EarthBound, Suzuki provided the music for the audio game, Real Sound: Kaze no Regret. His song "Satellite Serenade" was remixed by The Orb and was later featured on Sasha & D
