notes: 'Kosuke Saito is one of the most recognizable doujin artists known, as a regular
  contributor to KONAMI''s BEMANI series, responsible for spreading the J-Core movement,
  setting the ''standard'' for the electronic music ''scene'' and pushing a worldwide
  appeal to japanese techno.

  He''s first landmark towards his music career was debuting in KONAMI''s arcade series
  "beatmania IIDX". After winning a spot in a music trial for KONAMI, his first composed
  song "Clione" was featured in "beatmania IIDX 4th style". After a period of less
  than 3yrs he returned to KONAMI as a commissioned artist remixing a song for "beatmania
  IIDX 9th style", under an alias called ''kors k'' (コースケ) which is derived from his
  name Kosuke (in Japanese they sound similar). From there on forth he became committed
  to continue his music venture and soon to become an icon of the japanese techno
  ''movement''.

  At the end of the year 2004 he assembled his own proper recording studio labeled
  as ''S2TB Recording'' (The S2TB is an acronym for SubSonic Tribe) rather than being
  under a recognizable doujin studio or artist. Although the idea of a studio was
  a premature move (as he''s subsequent CD release wasn''t until 8yrs later) it gave
  him the freedom and rights to label his works. At Comic Market 67 (unconfirmed)
  he released his first CD album under his label, consisting of his early works and
  a strong influence of house music.

  With the introduction of "beatmania IIDX 10th style" an unknown artist appeared
  under the alias ''teranoid'' with the song ''gigadelic''. According to some sources,
  no one at the time knew who this person/alias was. It was clearly unknown. Consisting
  of hardstyle, gabba and hardcore tracks the alias was solely focus on hard techno
  only. Subsequently an alliance was made with a popular vocalist at the time called
  ''MC Natsack''. With Natsack as the MC the duo became very popular in the clubs,
  even as far as releasing a Live performance CD from one of the events at "live@underground".
  Later in 2006 kors k claimed responsibility for the teranoid project.
