Michi-chan

Michi-chan is the character name of Michelle Eyre from REC Networks. Inspired by the Hello Project and various other female styles of Japanese popular music, Michi-chan has recorded several parody songs of Japanese and Western pop songs both in English and in Japanese. Michi is a transgendered artist who transitioned artistically in 2007 under the Michi-chan name. Michi-chan reflects her female persona while her "group" called "Srap All Around" (a parody of the Japanese pop band Attack All Around), reflects a more unisex persona. In her former male identity, she produced and performed many parody songs, mainly related to either her former telephone entertainment line or the Skyscanner Satellite Radio Network.

Roller Derby

Michelle is a big fan of the grassroots roller derby leagues. She is seen at roller derby events in Arizona and Las Vegas. Michi-chan's first 4 roller derby releases are related to the Arizona Derby Dames league from Phoenix. "Hey Scrappers" is a tribute to her favorite team, The School Yard Scrappers. In addition, the song "Rope Me Rhonda" is a tribute to one of the players on a different AZDD team, The Bombshells and "I Got Humped By Red Rocker" is based on a skater on the Brutal Beauties. The October 2007 release "The Coffin Drag" is a song about another team in the league, The Coffin Draggers. In this song, she played a very deep voice role as "E. Gore Srapenstein". Michelle is also the vice president of a new upstart Old School Derby Association league in the Phoenix area.
