About Hideto Takarai – HYDE:
Hyde was the guitarist in another band when he was “recruited” by Tetsuya in 1991 to form the band L’Arc~en~Ciel. Since then, Hyde became the main lyricist of the band, although he also composes music for the band, and for his solo work. In his solo work, Hyde started with singles such as “evergreen”, “angel’s tale” and “shallow sleep” in 2001, and then he released his first solo album “roentgen”. This album was released with lyrics in Japanese and another album with lyrics in English. After that, Hyde released “666”, an album with more rock sounds rather than the mellow ones on “roentgen”. In 2005 he re-initiated his solo career with the album “faith” and a tour that went even to the U.S. In 2008, Hyde in his solo work from L’Arc~en~Ciel, formed the band “VAMPS” with K.A.Z., releasing a collection of singles and two albums to this date, the band also went on tour in 6 countries, including for the first time a Latin American Country.
Hyde has solo projects, as well as his own record label under Sony Japan called Haunted Records.

In the co-main event of the evening, former world title challenger Ev “E.T.” Ting turned in an outstanding performance by routing Costa Rican martial artist Ariel Sexton, solidifying his position once again as a top contender in ONE Championship’s stacked lightweight division. Opening up the three-round contest by taking the action right to Sexton, Ting connected on a series of fast and powerful strikes, pushing his opponent back up against the cage. In the second round, Ting continued to blast Sexton with serious firepower, featuring his best striking combinations. Sexton tried to change the complexion of the bout in the third round, fishing for a finish with a flying knee and a submission attempt. Ting did just enough to pull away slightly in the third after a gruelling match, and came out victorious via split decision.
Local martial arts superstar Phoe “Bushido” Thaw turned in a spectacular performance, stopping Cambodian opponent Sor Sey with an emphatic push kick to the face in the very first round. Thaw, a lethwei practitioner, traded explosive strikes with Sor, a khun khmer specialist, right at the center of the cage. When a left hand staggered Sor along the fence, Thaw capitalized on the opening and abruptly ended matters with his next kick. The official finish came at 1:53 minutes of round one, sending the packed Yangon crowd at the Thuwunna Indoor Stadium into a frenzy.
