Originally released in 2014, Kero Kero Bonito's debut mixtape, Intro Bonito, was a monumental success in the underground hyperpop scene bubbling up throughout the band's hometown of South London. The trio, featuring Gus Lobban, Jamie Bulled, and Sarah Midori Perry, started crafting their unique blend of electronic pop music after meeting each other through online bulletin boards like MixB - Lobban & Bulled were searching for like-minded musicians to join the group with an interest in Japanese rap. With Perry's unique singing style (featuring lyrics in both Japanese and English), the band went on to write influential tracks such as "Sick Beat," "I'd Rather Sleep," "Pocket Crocodile," and others that were inspired by J-pop, dancehall, and video game music.The Intro Bonito mixtape paved the way for Kero Kero Bonito's rise
