Henshin a Go-Go!!
This was a concept I came up with based on the rumor that the Rider after Wizard was going to be a painter which coincidentally had a number of similarities to Gaim. These were unintentional and most were conceived before we knew Gaim's actual premise.
Rider Name: Kamen Rider Splay
Identity: No name yet. But the story is that they are a student at a prestigious academy for the arts (high school level) where they specialize in orchestra (cello) and painting. However, while they have immense skill in these areas, they have a far greater passion for breakdancing, rapping, and graffiti (as a preferred artistic medium, not as a vandalous act.) This is causing friction in the character's life as they are unsure if they should stick to what they know will give them a future or pursue what they really love to do. This struggle is mirrored by the one that the character faces in regards to the monsters of the series.
Gender: Male/Female My original idea was a male character but it could easily be a female character.
Motif: Painting/Colors/Life
Kaijin Enemy: The Canvas - So the main struggle for this concept evolved around a nameless parallel world in which a scientist has been monitoring a tear to our world as well as conducting experiments regarding pigmentation; namely its removal.
Effectively this man created a way to remove the pigment from an object in the form of a translucent cube. These cubes could then be merged with other objects for interesting effects. The problem was that objects that have had their pigment removed will eventually begin to leech pigment from the objects around them. At first this only applied to objects but eventually this pigmentation jumped the barrier and has begun affecting the flora and fauna, including people.
Once this epidemic becomes widespread those afflicted earliest being to show agitation towards anything possessing pigment as well as displaying small amounts of disfigurement as well as chronic pain and display the ability to 'feed' on color, which slows their transformation and dulls their pain for a time. Eventually these "Canvas" people begin experiencing wild outbursts and every once in awhile one of these "monsters" seemingly disappears.
Arsenal: Kamen Rider SPlay utilizes the Splay Driver along with Chroma Drives that he can generate by touching objects of a particular color (a red fire hydrant will produce a Red Drive and so on)
While in each of his 7 forms he can produce items/weapons out of his Drives which he can plug into his Sprayroid companion robot. (A small robot that can receive chroma drives to be utilized in combat. Normally takes the form of a spray can on the back of Splay's belt.)
Rider Item:Splay can touch an object and produce a Chroma Drive which can be used to transform, create a weapon, sprayed out to create a smokescreen, thrown like a grenade along with several other functions.
This is all I've got thus far, I've been toying with the idea of writing some more but I dunno yet. Feel free to share your thoughts.

Just some creative criticism. When you put words like Beat and Mixer together, it starts to sound like it's for cooking. I'd suggest referring to them as something involving tracks or singles or tapes just to ensure that no one gets the wrong impression. Also if you didn't wanna use the word "Tracks" for the gimmick, you could use it to refer to the forms. In this case "Metal Form" would be the "Metal Track" and so on.
Also since the tape theme is abundant in your concept I strongly feel that you should consider having a tape deck/boombox themed weapon called the "Ghetto Blaster" (which if you don't know is another slang term for a boombox).
Also Todoroki (like the kamen rider) means like a rumble or a resound so you might like that for a last name for your character.
Just some thoughts, I hope I'm not imposing; good luck with your concept I really like it.
