Hierophant Green was originally a bassist in a popular Japanese band, which made their major label debut in 2000. After the band broke up and the members went their separate ways, he began working as a supporting member for various bands before he decided to become an electro/dance artist. He started recording and mixing his own tracks in summer 2007. He also started uploading tracks on Myspace, which garnered attention from several indie record labels in the US.
