He was present on Static-X's debut album,
Wisconsin Death Trip, but left the band during the early recording stages of their second album,
Machine, citing personal problems due to excessive touring. However, he did still contribute keyboards to the record. He rejoined Static-X after the firing of their then-current guitarist,
Tripp Eisen, at the end of the recording process of the 2005 album
Start a War, and was present to record their fifth album,
Cannibal. Between his stints in Static-X, he formed another, less aggressive band called Revolve. Drawing comparisons to
Tool and
Pink Floyd, they were successful locally and played several concerts in and around the Los Angeles area. They released several demos as free downloads on their website, and released one EP containing several reworked versions of previously released demos, as well as a few new tracks. Fukuda has a son born in 2008. On Fukuda's rejoining into the band, frontman
Wayne Static said: In 2010, Fukuda joined Drugstore Fanatics. Fukuda contributed to the
KMFDM album
WTF?!, playing guitar on the song "Come On – Go Off". Fukuda also contributed to
Wednesday 13's 2011 remix EP "
Re-Animated". The tracks from the EP were re-released as part of Disc 4 for Wednesday's "
Dead Meat: 10 Years of Blood, Feathers & Lipstick" box set under the Disc title: "Re-Animated Resurrected". The disc also featured extra remixes by Koichi. In 2015, Fukuda was in the Australian rock band Bellusira, working out of Los Angeles. In October 2018, it was announced that Fukuda – along with the other two surviving original members, bassist
Tony Campos and drummer Ken Jay – would be involved in a reunion of Static-X, who were planning to release a new album and tour in 2019 in honor of the memory of their former bandmate Wayne Static. The first of those albums, which had since been announced as being split into two parts, titled
Project Regeneration Vol. 1, was released in July 2020. == Equipment ==
