Akio Dobashi started his major label career in 1984, as the keyboard player and composer for the band REBECCA. The following year, he became the leader of the band, and assumed the majority of the song writing responsibilities. Their fourth album “REBECCA IV _ Maybe Tomorrow” was a major hit and the first album by a rock band to reach No. 1 on the Oricon chart (total sales of 1.4 million). Each subsequent album debuted at number one on the charts, and REBECCA rocketed into the million-selling echelon of elite bands. REBECCA was also well-known for large-scale concert tours, culminating in a 1989 performance at the Tokyo Dome (cap. 42,000). In 1990, after a performance at the Budokan, REBECCA announced their break-up. Dobashi went solo, signed with Virgin Japan, invited Francois K. to be his engineer and recorded “FOX”, his first solo album. He wrote and produced for other artists for a number of years before deciding to establish his own label “starfish recordings” in 1999 to explore his own interests and multi-cultural possibilities. In 2002, he signed a recording contract, under the moniker of Crude Reality, with a UK label, Arthrob Recordings. A 12-inch single “Stay Or Leave” was released worldwide. Then in 2003, a second 12-inch single “Octagon Planet” was released. Also in the same year, he started a bi-monthly party event called “mu-seum” at club LOOP. In 2007, “FOX” was re-issued from WHD Entertainment with 2 new additional songs. Dobashi continues to thrive on a wide range of musical activities, from being a DJ to doing live shows, producing and composing soundtracks, and transcending genres in all he chooses to engage.
