PROFILE

"HYMIES HIM" is a group centering on Sara(Vo) and JEE(Key&Prog).

They are expressing modern emptiness by using the methodology of HIP-HOP/GRIME/ELECTRONICA/ALTERNATIVE ROCK.

They have an electro sense from the 80s and beginning of the 90s, but they are polar opposite of today's disco revival.
And the feature of their music are "Heavy backroom-groove", "Melancholy melody", and "ephemeral lyrics".

When they play live show, the guitarist(Mizuki Akutsu) and the VJ(Jun Watanabe) participate, and create the more steric space.

They work with wide range of musicians such as rock bands, hip-hop crews, and electronic creators.

praise not only at home but also from overseas listener and media.
