Cover collaboration of "Toothache Volt (short Ver.)" by vocalist *Kokoro*.
「Toothache Volt」Original track :
I compose dance music centered around techno and breakbeats, and publish it as MP3 files on the BarkTunes website's “Track List” page.
My goal is to make music that's techno at heart but pop enough for everyone to enjoy.
I also share my music on YouTube and on SoundCloud below. Please give it a listen.
I'd be really happy to hear your feedback.
Feel free to share it however you like — through this site's “Contact” page, a comment on a blog post, a post on X, or anything else.
Also, I offer all my original songs free of charge under the Creative Commons “Attribution” (CC BY) license. (This excludes remix tracks and other works involving someone else's copyright — see the “Guidelines” page for details.)
On my blog, I introduce “what kind of guy BarkTunes is” and talk about my own songs. Feel free to take a look around.

[Maniac Category] Roger That, Elbucky
“Roger That, Elbucky” below is my favorite among my own songs. It's an acid techno track with a lot of twists and turns in its development. The structure and sound design are built for the dance floor, but I think I managed to give it an accessible, pop-friendly shape for an acid techno track.
[Pop Category] Stargazer
“Stargazer” below is a lyrical vocal techno track made using the vocal synthesis software Synthesizer V2. The arrangement feels a bit too simple, but I think the melody and lyrics turned out well.
Below is a list of cases where people reached out to me after using a BarkTunes song as BGM, or after covering one of my songs in a collaboration.
BarkTunes songs have a track record of being used by everyone from individuals to a company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market — safe and reliable. I'd love for you to consider a collaboration or using my music... actually, please just use it. I'm asking nicely!
For details on the guidelines for using my songs, please see the “Song Usage Guidelines” page.

I compose my music in the setup shown in the photo below.
The DAW (music production software) I use is Cubase.
Yes. From when I started running this site on April 21, 2002 until September 2013, I went by the name “JusticeSide”.
I still love everything about the name “JusticeSide” — how it looks written out, how it sounds, and its slightly overwrought, self-important teenage vibe — but when I resumed making music in September 2013 after a hiatus, I decided to start using the name “BarkTunes”, matching the site name, with an eye toward making it easier to build recognition going forward.
Thank you for your continued support of both the old “JusticeSide” and the new “BarkTunes”.
