Dream Dolphin
Dream Dolphin (stylized in all caps) is an ambient music and acid trance music project fronted by Japanese model and musician Noriko Kodera (小寺法子), who is also known as Noriko Okamoto (岡本法子).
Dream Dolphin was a three-person unit (Fire, Water, and NORIKO) that was active from 1995 to 2003. They had a prolific career, releasing over 20 albums during that time. Noriko worked with Japanese ambient musician Yoshiaki Ochi during his live performances.
Renewed attention came with the release of the 2021 compilation Heisei no Oto on Dutch label Music from Memory. Music from Memory later released a compilation of Dream Dolphin's music on Gaia: Selected Ambient & Downtempo Works in 2023. Noriko currently lives in New Zealand.
In August 2024, Noriko performed live in Tokyo, Japan, where her latest single "The Roads" was performed for the first time. She then released the official single CD of "The Roads" during her Shanghai tour on October 31, 2024, and her Tokyo tour on March 1, 2025.
