The duo consists of Arika Takarano (real name: Ari Hironaga, born 28th September 1963 in Kumamoto, Japan, vocals & lyrics) and Mikiya Katakura (born 1st August in Obihiro, Hokkaido, Japan, music).
Never listed as official members, but always mentioned in the albums' booklets, violinists Yu Sugino and Tuyoshi Watanabe are a vital part of this duo.
Katakura met Takarano in 1985 when he just graduated from music school and was looking for a singer. As ARI PUROJEKKUTO, they released their first song Sakura no Hana ha Kuruizaki on a compilation CD named Rebel Street IV ~Some Girls one year later. Their first album Gensou Teien was released in 1988.
However, they made their major debut in 1992 as ALI PROJECT.
In the late 90s, they decided to shift their artistry to a much darker direction which Takarano referred to as a switch from Shiro Ari to Kuro Ari, they stick to the Kuro Ari concept ever since.
ALI PROJECT makes music regularly to this date which is generally highly influenced by Classical music, yet Katakura's love for experimenting is obvious. He makes heavy use of synthesizers and likes to intergrate key elements from other, often contemporary music styles and genres such as Rock, Metal, Hip Hop or even Drum 'n' Bass.
Their music's distinct sound is driven by a well-made mix of synthetic and organic, always complemented by Takarano's highly complex lyrics and clean vocals.
They developed a signature sound for Anime related work though.

ALI PROJECT Lyrics
S嬢の秘めやかな悔恨 眠れる木馬に 跨り向かうのは 月夜に燃え果てた 赤い廃墟のフェアリーランド 迷子のわたしを 助けに参りまし…
あたしがアリスだった頃 細い首 絡みつく 見えない長い指 手鏡に 映るのは 三日月とあの人の影 もう少しだけそばに居て あたしのこ…
春蚕 捧ぐ贄は ただひとつの戀 わが心 血に染む 紫の さあ玻璃に閉じ込めなさい 瘕を飾り 曇っていく世界で も…
極楽荊姫 互いの血肉を貪って 生け捕られるように 愛し合うことは限りなく 悦びに近づけど 天日(たいよう)の恵みのまま…
眠れる城 目覚める前の国で 僕らはいつも 頬を寄せ合いながら 唄った 見知らぬ未来たちが 待っていようと いつか迷…
禁じられた遊び 薔薇の首輪つなげて 銀の鎖くわえて 今宵もひとり果てる あなたが憎らしい 跪いてお甞めよ 苦い愛の雫を 天使に施す…
聖少女領域 まだ云わないで 呪文めいたその言葉 “愛”なんて羽のように軽い 囁いて パパより優しいテノールで 奪う覚悟があるのならば…
薔薇架刑 もしもわたしが 仄蒼き薔薇(そうび)なら 肉体(からだ)は綻ぶ花でしょう 添い寝する駒鳥たち 刺で抱きしめ …
薔薇獄乙女 豹のように美しくわたし 着飾るは闇の毛皮 谷間の百合 踏みつけても あなたの場所に向かうため 牙を立てる果肉…
