Osamu Migitera

Osamu Migitera (右寺修) (birthday: September 5th) is one of Konami's in-house artists for the Bemani music simulation series; his songs have appeared in Pop'n Music, Beatmania, Beatmania IIDX, GuitarFreaks and DrumMania, and Dance Dance Revolution.

Working by himself, his most common aliases are "D-Crew", "MTO", and "Positive MA", but he is most famous as the leader of Des-ROW, and performs along with Akehiro Hidaka (日高明大), also known as "mur.mur.Kurotou", and often Yuu Tsuboi (坪井雄), one of the three rappers from the Japanese hip-hop group ALPHA.

Migitera's collaborations with other popular Bemani artists include the
*DesQ, with Taku Sakakibara (榊原琢) or TaQ.
*TOMO-crew, with Tomosuke Funaki (舟木智介).
*Nick Boys, with Tomosuke Funaki, Yuu Tsuboi, and another of the rappers from ALPHA.
*Des-あさ, with Asaki (あさき).
*414, with Mutsuhiko Izumi (泉陸奥彦).
*Shine All Stars, in which he appears as a vocalist.

On July 2, 2004, Osamu Migitera, Akehiro Hidaka, and Yuu Tsuboi released a fifteen-track album titled "D." as the band Des-ROW. The album is primarily longer versions of their Bemani tracks under the alias, but also included are: a long version of "Funky Sonic World" with an additional verse and chorus performed by Hidaka but without additional performances from Shigerai Morimoto (森本繁来), the lead vocalist for the band Choke Sleeper; a version of "VOIDDD" performed by Hidaka instead of Kevin Vecchione; a remix of Yakankou (夜間行) that, when spliced together with the original and "MA" remix, draw the song to a robust 3:33; and a single original track, "a-no-ther/day", of which Curus (pop'n music 12 いろは) is an arrangement.

On the Choke Sleeper album titled "Soul Mate Factory", the first track is an extended version of "Endless Cruising", the vocal line in which was sung in Guitar Freaks and Drummania V by Shigerai Morimoto (Des-ROW feat. Shige).
