   Profile:
The M-Pire. No one really remembers the exact day when they took over. It wasn’t a revolution over night, it was an ongoing process over years. Bit by bit, they took control, cut our freedoms and made us believe that we had chosen this. That we wanted it. And that it was good. But with time, a few us started to notice hat something wasn’t right. We felt a deeply irritating feeling inside us, even we were not supposed to. We couldn’t really talk about it. In this world, you were not supposed to feel this way. And if you did, the M-Pire had ways to heal you. That’s what they called it. But no matter how many pills we swallowed and chips we had in our brains, the feeling would never vanish completely. So we started to look deeper and deeper inside ourselves, until we found an answer. That was the beginning. The beginning of the Revolting Puppets.

   Genre: Electronica   Synthpop   Electro   Techno   Electropop   
   Profile:
The principal members were Haruomi Hosono (bass), Yukihiro Takahashi (drums) and Ryuichi Sakamoto (keyboards). The band was originally conceived as a one-off studio project by Hosono, the other two members being recruited session musicians - the idea was to produce an album fusing orientalist exotica (cf their cover version of Martin Denny's Firecracker) with modern electronics. However the first album (with its cutting-edge production) was very popular, and the studio project grew into a fully fledged touring band and career for its three members. Making abundant use of new synthesizers, samplers, digital and computer recording technology as it became available, their popularity and influence extended beyond Japan. Generally the band are highly regarded as pioneers of electronic music, and continue to be remixed and sampled by modern artists. The band had stopped working together by 1984, the three members returning to their solo careers. They released a one-off reunion album, Technodon, in 1993. The early 2000s saw Hosono & Takahashi reunited in a project called Sketch Show. On a number of occasions Ryuichi Sakamoto has joined in on Sketch Show performances and recording sessions. He later proposed they rename the unit "Human Audio Sponge" when he participates.
