About us
Music with no specific voice, but for everyone's heart.
mintori lab was founded as an experimental ground for musical expression utilizing generative AI.
At its core is "chaos"—where genres and vocals shift with each track.
Centered around producer "Torinu," a diverse range of personalities and sounds will emerge from this space.
You won't find a unified genre or a fixed identity here.
What exists is simply "the sound born in this very moment."

Creator Profile: Torinu
Torinu is the flagship creator of mintori Lab, blending generative AI with a street sensibility.
Starting his creative journey with generative AI in March 2025, he has since released 33 vocal tracks and short clips.
生成AI とDAWを使いAIと人力の融合を研究中。
Representative Works: "HAD GET ALL," "Three O’Clock Reckoning," and more.
Genre-Defying, Yet True to Emotion
Torinu transcends genres by combining AI with manual techniques across styles like Chill, Lo-fi, City Pop, and Rap. He prioritizes feeling, yet pays close attention to lyrics.
AI: Just Another Human Tool
He broadly utilizes voice synthesis AI (VoC), code generation, and image generation, among other tools. His approach to lyrics and song structure is thoroughly experimental.
AI Music: A New Frontier
Going forward, Torinu plans to not only release music but also create full music videos and introduce his works on YouTube.
He's also open to collaborations and small-scale EP projects at any time.
Generated Track & Concept Introduction
【Track Title】
Three O’Clock Reckoning
午後３時の革命
Released: April 25, 2025 / Digital
【Production Notes】
This track was born from an inspiration I felt while riding my bike home around 3 PM. It's a record of "the city's blue hour," with its core structure built by AI and enhanced with handwritten Japanese lyrics.
【Label Concept】
- Genre-unbound expression
- Filling the "gaps" between AI and human creativity with sound
- Personal sounds that resonate with the urban hum
- An attempt to capture "the present emotion in the present moment"
- Pursuing the unity of music and visuals
- Always experimental in some way, yet always pop in another

MV Production
This is an experiment to answer the question: "What happens when AI does everything in a music video?"
From video and composition to logo generation and color grading, AI handled every step.
This is for your reference to see "what happens when AI does it all."
We're also casually open to production requests and collaboration inquiries (the AIs are waiting too!).
Featured Artists
Meet the singers born from mintori Lab, who once had no names.
We've given names to these vocalists, born from generative AI, and provided them with their own unique "voices."
Currently, two virtual singers are active. Their introductions come directly from them (or so they say!).
