コナミ矩形波倶楽部 (Konami Kukeiha Club) is a generic name for the Konami Sound Team used from mid 1980s to 2000.

The live band itself was formed by 古川もとあき (Furukawa Motoaki), a composer working for the game firm Konami, after his work on Gradius III back in 1990. The band even has two official albums: A self-titled back in 1990 featuring 5 original songs and five cover tracks and a second album entitled HOPE in 1993 featuring 10 original tracks. Afterward, they became a cover/in-house band.

The members consist of:

古川もとあき (Furukawa Motoaki): All Guitars & Programming

what shatty99 told is right, Jangli Jaggas is fantastic!!!! I was looking for someone who did "castlevania style" music, and thanks to him I did :). And yes, Kalanos, they composed "belmont's revenge" soundtrack, and took part in almost all castlevania soundtracks (but individually, not under the name "kukeiha club"). These people is fantastic!!!! Magnificent versions in their two "Dracula Battle" albums :)

Well, the official name is コナミ矩形波倶楽部. Konami Kukeiha Club is just the romanization. I would vote for コナミ矩形波倶楽部 because that's their correct Japanese name.

They're both valid, but the Japanese tend to prefer コナミ矩形波倶楽部. It's also what they use on the Japanese wikipedia.

If anyone has KKH CDs for sell I'd be interested in buying them. Either Kukeiha Club or Konami Kukeiha Club albums. This stuff is just too rare. For those who'd like to hear some of their music: http://downloads.khinsider.com/game-soundtracks/browse/all
