She was then signed to Taku's record label Tachytelic Records. She debuted in 2002 as 日之内絵美 and released the single "Magic / World", which was produced by Taku. In 2003 she went on to release three additional singles, and in Novemeber came the release of her debut album, "Dramatiques". All of her singles, with the exception of "Freak!", have ranked in the top 150 on the Oricon Charts.

Hinouchi soon began composing music for Heartsdales and singing back up for them. Her first appearance with them was on the "I See You" single. She continued to work with the group until their spilt in 2006. She has also done a lot of work with m-flo.
