About いよわ
いよわ (iyowa) is a Japanese music producer and illustrator. Iyowa's first exposure to music composition began when he was in third grade in elementary school, through using the music creation function in the Nintendo DS software Daigasso! Band Brothers DX. Around the time between his upper grades elementary school and middle school, he learned about VOCALOID from Kagerou Project. Iyowa made his debut as a VOCALOID producer in his second year of high school (2018) with the song 終末のお天気 (Shuumatsu no Otenki), and attracted a significant amount of viewers with each of his releases. His songs are characterized by the use of release cut piano, abrupt modulations, and heavy use of high-pitched tones and dissonance, as well as frequent usage of abstruse lyrics. His 16th work, 1000年生きてる (1000-nen Ikiteru), which is also a submission into the VOCALOID Collection -2020 Winter- contest, eventually won the 5th place in the TOP 30 Ranking. In December 2021, his 2nd full album わたしのヘリテージ (Watashi no Heritage) ranked 4th in the Oricon Indie Albums Ranking. The name 'Iyowa' (いよわ) comes from the Japanese sentence '胃が弱い' (lit. have a weak stomach), stemming from the fact that his stomach is relatively weak, and that he constantly suffers from stomach-related health complications.
