TЁЯRA

TЁЯRA is a jpop group consisting of Junko Karashima and Naoki Maeda, two in-house artists for the Bemani series of music games. The group has two distinct sounds - one is a dance orientated poppy sound (usually found in the Beatmania IIDX, pop'n music and Dance Dance Revolution games) and the other is a heavier, more rock driven sound (usually found in the Guitarfreaks and Drummania series of games). Usually, Karashima writes the lyrics and Maeda composes and arranges the music but both are proficient songwriters in their own right and both have partaken in vocals/composition/arrangement. Not to be confused with TЁЯRA Works is the name used soley when producing other artists together.
