Their music style is in the best Acid Jazz / Down-tempo traditions and have something in common with such artists as their countryman DJ Krush, United Future Organization, DJ Cam, etc. Among the characteristic features the deep piano parts, rich colourful orchestra sound and undulating charming rhythm could be highlighted.[citation needed] The Silent Poets collaborate with such electronic / pop / rap music stars as ACO, Port Of Notes, Coldcut, Frederic Galliano, Attica Blues, Yasushi Ide, DJ Vadim, Kid Loco, Towa Tei, Spiritual Vibes, Shakkazombie, Ken Hirai, and Ursula Rucker.

The Silent Poets speak the universal language of music, whether amongst themselves on the instrumental "Mass" (off 1996's Firm Roots) or supported by guests such as Last Poets Jalaluddin Mansur Nuriddin and Sulieman El-Hadi on "Inquizative, Derivative" (off 1994's Words and Silence).

History edit

Silent Poets was formed by Michiharu Shimoda in 1991. Their first meaningful work was the album Potential Meeting released in 1992 on Toy's Factory. After releasing their fifth album To Come..., Haruno left the group and Silent Poets became Shimoda's solo project. After that Shimoda composed music for fashion shows, released a huge number of remixes. The 2005 album, Sun, was released after a six year gap in recordings.

In 2018, Silent Poets released the album dawn, featuring the song "Asylums for the Feeling." The song would be used in Hideo Kojima's game Death Stranding, appearing both in marketing and in the final game. Silent Poets would also compose one of the songs for the end credits. Silent Poets currently composes the music for Kojima's weekly Spotify podcast Hideo Kojima presents Brain Structure.[1]
