Yume Bitsu (meaning «dream beats» in Japanese), is a psychedelic rock/space rock band. The band was active between 1995 and 2002.
Most of the band members live along the Pacific Coast in California, Oregon, and sometimes Washington.
Their debut Giant Surface Music Falling to Earth Like Jewels From the Sky was self-released in 1998 and was re-released by BaBaBing! Records in 1999. Their second album was self titled and was released in 1999 by BaDaBing! Their third album, Auspicious Winds was released by K Records in 2000. Their forth - and perhaps last - album Golden Vessyl of Sound was released in 2002 by K Records. There was also a split 12-inch vinyl EP with Andrew Reiger of Elf Power in 2002 on Planaria Records and Wabi Morning, a 12-inch one-sided EP released in 2003 on Burt Toast Vinyl. Recordings of live shows from 2002 (originally available as the 4th side of the vinyl version of 2002’s Golden Vessyl of Sound) were released by States Rights Records in 2002 as an official bootleg CD-R series, but have since sold out.
Vocalist/guitarist Adam Forkner is active as White Rainbow and is also part of Surface of Eceon, a supergroup that also features members of Landing, an ambient, psychedelic rock unit and has moonlighted as a guitarist for Devendra Banhart and Jackie-O Motherfucker.
Guitarist Franz Prichard is a part of the Japanese instrumental rock group kabaddi kabaddi kabaddi kabaddi which also includes members of Japanese rock bands Mools and Maher Shalal Hash Baz. A self-titled record was released in 2005 in Japan.
