f5ve

f5ve (pronounced fi-vee) are inter-dimensional dream agents from Tokyo, Japan. Their mission is to infiltrate the subconscious mind in order to eradicate self-doubt and negative energy. Utilizing their arsenal of optimism, confidence, fantasy, intelligence and female empowerment, these five women create surreal aural landscapes in which fear can’t exist. J-Pop veterans SAYAKA, KAEDE, MIYUU, RURI (previously in Happiness and E-Girls) and RUI (iScream) join forces to make Japanese pop music for an international audience. Debut album SEQUENCE 01 is the first sequence of dreams carefully coded by f5ve, who has infused unique dream data into every song that will be experienced differently by each listener. Executive produced by grammy award winner BloodPop® with co-production from BRITs producer of the year A. G. Cook, Count Baldor, Hudson Mohawke, AOBeats and a feisty feature from Kesha, the album transcends multiple genres while maintaining electronic japanese edge. Exploring themes of oppressive work culture, magical clocks that can control time, aliens that play gacha games, being as tiny as a ladybug or as big as Tokyo Tower, and simply eating a lot of lettuce; this album is a whacky yet cohesive trip into a nostalgic future where anything is possible.
