The experimental rock project Mi-Gu was founded by <a href="spotify:artist:4QebQToYFU8PDWW21ZWw4U">Yuko Araki</a>, who performed as a drummer in <a href="spotify:artist:2vJObElaIZWYDLpiXiJMo9">Cornelius</a>' band and also played with the <a href="spotify:artist:2s4tjL6W3qrblOe0raIzwJ">Yoko Ono Band</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4FOsScA1ZA8R9Ih4Fi0qLL">If by Yes</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:1MGR2y3msa1wBK06SSUNaf">Mike Watt</a>'s Brother's Sister's Daughter. <a href="spotify:artist:4QebQToYFU8PDWW21ZWw4U">Araki</a> released Mi-Gu's self-titled debut album in 2003, delivering playful, fractured pop that recalled the other groups she performed with, but with its own identity. Starting with 2006's From Space, Mi-Gu added guitarist/producer Hirotaka "Shimmy" Shimizu -- who was also a bandmate of <a href="spotify:artist:4QebQToYFU8PDWW21ZWw4U">Araki</a>'s in <a href="spotify:artist:2vJObElaIZWYDLpiXiJMo9">Cornelius</a>' group and in other projects -- to the fold. The pair returned in 2009 with Pulling from Above, which was released on <a href="spotify:artist:1tcgfoMTT1szjUeaikxRjA">Ryuichi Sakamoto</a>'s label <a href="spotify:artist:2H1h48E4gOzLhxPIADW98p">Commons</a>. Three years later, the collection Choose the Light made Mi-Gu's music more available to Western audiences. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
