EXTRA
This is the masterpiece that introduced Kojo Morimoto to the rest of the world. EXTRA, the music clip from the pioneer of Japanese techno, Ken Ishii, was released in 1995. It skillfully represents the Koji Morimoto style of the Asian back alley world and received overwhelming praise both domestically and internationally. This triggered the beginning of a great boom for Japanimation. It received the award for “MTV Dance Video of the Year” in England. (Source: Official Website)
