Misachi Kyushima changes name, style and label

In short, she makes her revolution and you can get lost, but the result is interesting!.

Misachi Kyushima started her career at the end of 2005 under Dreamusic (the record company of Ayaka Hirahara, Ryouko Moriyama, FUNKY MONKEY BABYS and... gunther!). She released the single Missing You which was widely praised.

She was once the most likely to be Chihiro Onitsuka's successor because of her voices and her strong folk-rock influence, but she unfortunately did not manage to be as successful as her elder. At the end of 2007, after several changes in her style which all failed, Misachi Kyushima had a break to travel, meet new people and evaluate her situation. She has taken out one main lesson from her vacation: she really wants to keep on singing, but she wants singing to be pleasure and entertainment, and not pressure.

On July 1st 2008, Misachi Kyushima consequently changed her agency, went indies, and resumed her public activities as Asuka Riri. Even if her will was to go back to music, she had not released anything concrete... until spring 2009. Indeed she opened her official MySpace under the name... MisaChi. On the website, there are two electro songs with an ethnic/tribal influence. Both are produced by Michihiro Takahashi, aka Re-n[rin]. They are entitled Fujiyama and Koyoi zo kyuu e. You can discover them while waiting for a possible CD release!
