Daisuke Asakura, Hiroyuki Takami
Access (earlier known as AXS) is a popular Japanese music group. Its members are Daisuke Asakura and Hiroyuki Takami; it is a part of Sony Music Japan.
Access was formed in 1991 after singer Hiroyuki Takami performed as a guest vocalist for up-and-coming songwriter/producer Daisuke Asakura.
The two went on to record three albums before announcing their break-up in 1995 for unknown reasons.
In 2002, they reunited with much fanfare.
AXS is their written nickname. While spelt AXS, it is actually not an "X" but two inturned arrows ("A-)(-S"). (wouldn't allow the arrow characters) The nickname was coined by Takami. It first appeared on the group's debut album "Fast Access" on the last page of the lyrics book. AXS replaced the group's name on their third single "Naked Desire." The logo has many variations depending on its use.
There is only one album that has "AXS" credited as the group's name: "AXS Remix Best Tracks." In all albums from 1993-1995 song production was credited as "songs by AXS."
Before their reunion in 2002, the logo and nickname have not been used except as credits for remixed songs on the album and tour DVDs of "Crossbridge."
In 2006 for the "blanc" and "rouge" tour, AXS reappeared sporting a coat of arms for the tour's logo.
In 2007, the duo performed the opening theme of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion STAGE24 & 25, and did the third opening of D.Gray-Man, and the PV for that song can be seen now as well.
In July, 2008, their new single "Dream Runner" was aired as the opening theme of a TV drama series Here is Greenwood.
