Doopees was a conceptual project and fictional band formed by genius composer and steel drum master Yann Tomita to create the ultimate “cute” album to “keep you healthy, mind clear.” The group released just one full-length studio album on For Life Records.
Doopees' music is not easy to describe. Their repertoire contains both Tomita's original works and cover versions of songs by Phil Spector and similar composers. The music is cute and funny beyond all belief, and at times seems to be a full-on parody of J-pop. The songs aren't tied into any particular genre, and that coupled with the strange universe the listener is dragged in makes Doopees something quite special.
