Editor's note

Perfume's electronic pop and synchronized dance routines

A Japanese trio from Hiroshima who mix pop melodies with electronic production.

For a quick sense of their style, 'Polyrhythm' and 'Electro World' frame their mix of pop and electronic production pretty well.

Their 2008 single 'Electro World' brought them wider attention in Japan, and tracks like 'Polyrhythm' helped define their sound. The group's catalog includes songs like 'Daijobanai' and 'I Don't Understand,' continuing their blend of pop and electronic elements. They've faced moments like the 'Chocolate Disco' plagiarism dispute with Franz Ferdinand, which added a co-writing credit.

Perfume formed as a trio in Hiroshima around 2000 and released their debut album 'Perfume~Complete Best~' in 2005. Their 2008 single 'Electro World' marked a shift toward wider recognition, followed by songs like 'Polyrhythm' and 'Perfect Star - Perfect Style.' In 2012, their stage outfits at a South Korean concert drew criticism for resembling historical Japanese military uniforms.

Archive material and source history

Perfume formed as a trio in Hiroshima around 2000. They released their debut album 'Perfume~Complete Best~' in 2005, but it was the 2008 single 'Electro World' that brought them wider attention in Japan. That track, along with songs like 'Polyrhythm' and 'Perfect Star - Perfect Style,' helped define their sound, a mix of pop melodies with electronic production.

The group consists of Ayano Ōmoto (Nocchi), Yuka Kashino (Kashiyuka), and Ayaka Nishiwaki (A-chan). Their performances often pair the music with coordinated dance routines. In 2010, their song 'Chocolate Disco' was involved in a plagiarism dispute with the band Franz Ferdinand, which led to a co-writing credit being added.

They faced another issue in 2012 when their stage outfits at a South Korean concert were criticized for resembling historical Japanese military uniforms. Beyond these moments, their catalog includes tracks like 'Daijobanai' and 'I Don't Understand,' continuing their blend of pop and electronic elements.
