Erectricmole are an electro pop unit formed in 2007. Nobuhiro Karino had previously been creating his own music influenced by new wave and the ambient music of Brian Eno, Wiliam Orbit and others.

As a duo, they combine these influences, creating mellow electronica with Nagai's whispery style vocals telling ancient tales of a bygone era. High class, dreamy electro-pop.
