Street Fighter Band consists of lead singer Chakahan, guitarist Noodles, lead/bass player Murdoch and drummer Russell. The music style of the band has added new ways and unique shapes. Even the stories are so unconstrained, unimaginable and very virtual, but they also give the creators a very flesh-and-blood personality.
Against the background of the proliferation of idol groups and many so-called powerful British musicians who don't like idol groups to "lower" the standard of British music, this band is composed of four kids with strong urban hip-hop colors, which are composed of the lead singer of "Blurred" and the author of the famous anime character "Miss Tang".
And their production team also includes producer-Dan "Dan" the automator "Nakamura, a famous Japanese hip-hop teacher in San Francisco (who has worked with bands such as PrimalScream, DepecheMode and DeLaSoul). MihoHatori, the Japanese female lead singer of new york indie band CiboMato, DelTheFunkyHomosapien, the American western rapper, IbrahimFerrer, the Cuban jazz singer, and TinaFrantz, the main member of the post-punk pioneer band TalkingHeads.
The music style is mainly hip-hop, alternative pop/rock, alternative rap, and some are mixed with Jamaican reggae, Cuban traditional love songs and even British punk rock.

Since there are such distinctive personality characteristics and hobbies, there is naturally a very simple team building process:
Everything about the street fighter band started with one person, and he was the bad boy Murdoch. Their composition comes from the "fatal" encounter between lead singer 2D and leader Murdoch.
2D, formerly known as Stuber, has a special interest in keyboard instruments and works in Uncle Norm's musical instrument chain store every weekend.
In order to realize the dream of music, Murdoc, his companions and his BB gang intend to make music by using the robbed synthetic instruments, so they and his dog party took the risk of grabbing a synthesizer and drove into Uncle Nome's shop to rob it.
But I didn't expect to bump into Stuber standing at the door. As a result, Stuber hit his left eye, and his memory deteriorated due to concussion.
Murdoch, who caused the accident, was finally sentenced by the court to 30 thousand hours of hard labor, while taking care of Stuber until he recovered.
One day, when Murdoch returned to the hospital with a confused Stuber, he made a 360-degree invincible turn on a whim. At that time, Stuber broke through the windshield and ran straight into the safety island like a javelin thrown hard. This time, Stuber was blind in his right eye, but he was lucky to regain consciousness. From then on, he regarded Murdoch as a savior and renamed it 2D (Secondary Injury).
Murdoch's terrible driving skills turned the lives of these two enemies 180 degrees. -murdock realized that 2D used to play synthesizers, and the music he played had the potential to be popular, so he made a very appropriate decision to make 2D Luo Zhi a member of his band.
As long as we find the drummer and guitarist again, everything will be solved.
Then the next name on the band list-drummer Russell. This hip-hop friend from new york, USA, works in a Soho record store in London, England. One day, Murdoch met him in the "Gollum Record Store" which specializes in hip-hop music in Soho, and they had a good chat.
When Murdoc learned that Russell was a B-Boy drummer who was good at funk rhythm, he actively invited him to join the group. In order to realize his dream, Russell immediately agreed to join. Russel said that there was an incredible power in his heart that made him create a fashionable rhythm.
In order to find his hand, they wrote in the British magazine NME? I advertised for his hand, but I didn't expect them to get a Japanese package, and a Japanese doll face of 10 years old jumped out! As soon as the noodles came out, they kept talking, and their hands were still plucking the strings back and forth on the guitar handle. The stupefied three people nodded to let the mysterious figure join under the unreasonable opening remarks of noodles.
The street fighter band composed of Murdoch, 2D, Russell and Noodles was formally established. They gave their first public performance in Camden at the end of 1998. The fierce and rough punk rock immediately caught the attention of EMI record companies and signed a record contract with them. From their first album of the same name released in April, 20001year, you can even hear new york black hip hop, Jamaican reggae dubbing, Cuban traditional love songs or British punk rock. At the beginning, Murdoc's goal of realizing his dream of music was finally realized, and they will also create a new era of music through the interweaving of virtual and real notes.
Street Fighter's first album of the same name has a variety of song styles, and he discovered Buena Vista Social in Cuba for some time.
Ibrahim Ferrer, the "elder" of the club, sang an old Spanish song "Latin Simone", and once he invited Miho from Cibo Matto.
Tina Weymouth from Hatori Tom Tom Club sang "19-2000". As for the first album "Clint Eastwood", it regained the glory of the most glorious period of "The blur", and "5/4" realized Damon Albarn's wish to be a Lo-Fi forever. By "Tomorrow Comes Today", it has become a cured post-punk, and "Punk" has reached the end of 3-chord punk, and it is completely 77 years old. At the end of "M 1A 1", the preface actually takes us back to the days of German duo D.A.F in 1980s, and adds Allegro Clint Eastwood as a hidden track.
The lead singer 2D is DamonAlbarn with big and lazy vagueness.
The "Tomorrow Comes Today" in the MV is relatively simple, and the live video is semi-animated (only the part of the organ is dynamic).
Formal two-dimensional comics, but even semi-animation, inherited the meticulous movements and even mouth-shaped styles in European and American animation.
Clint Eastwood used a director's name, but music had nothing to do with it. Two-dimensional animation and three-dimensional background are about the monster gorilla imagined by the drummer coming out to eliminate the damage, and NOODLE's little sister is still showing her legs and feet.
Personally, in this digital age of music, painting and animation, it is natural for virtual bands to appear in this form.
The band has not only added new styles to its music style, but also diversified elements. Moreover, its shape is so strange and has its own personality, and even its story is so imaginative and unimaginable. It is very virtual, but it also gives the creator extremely distinctive personality characteristics.
Their appearance not only attracted anime fans, but also became the object of their painting imitation. Even some younger bands are eager to try this form of endorsement with cartoons, and put cartoon shapes representing their own band image on some music forums, which shows that they have certain milestone significance in both the music field and the animation field. As for the development after the fight? In this era when music and animation can communicate and cooperate with each other through the Internet, it remains to be seen whether this form is a flash in the pan or a common phenomenon.
