Omega Tribe (Japanese: オメガトライブ, Hepburn: Omega Toraibu) was a Japanese music project led by producer Koichi Fujita from 1983 to 1995. With the help of composers Tetsuji Hayashi, Tsunehiro Izumi, and Hiroshi Shinkawa, the project had three different bands with three different lead vocalists: Kiyotaka Sugiyama (1983–1985), Carlos Toshiki (1986–1991), and Masahito Arai (1993–1994). Under Fujita's directions, recordings were performed by studio musicians and production handled by the project's production team.^[1] The project has been described as helping form the city pop sound, especially with the project's usage of summer and sea themes.^[2]
