Often working on rudimentary and opaquely designed "chiptune" hardware, and asked to use pseudonyms to avoid the approaches of rival video game companies, the women of Capcom's seminal Sound Team composed a multitude of now iconic video game standards. This one hour special covers everything from Manami Matsumae and Tamayo Kawamoto's work on early SNES classics such as Mega Man & No Way Home to Akari Kaida & Sayaka Fujita's contributions to the groundbreaking survival horror of Resident Evil & Dino Crisis

Yanokami is a musical unit formed by Akiko Yano (矢野顕子) and Rei Harakami. Yano discovered Harakami's work in 2003 and approached him about working together. Harakami had been a fan of Yano's work for a long time and was happy to collaborate with her. The two began working together in 2004 and debuted formally as Yanokami in 2007 with a self-titled album. They concentrated mainly on live performances from 2008 to 2010, playing at both small venues and large festivals.
Harakami died of a cerebral hemorrhage in July 2011. Despite this loss, Yano announced her intention to continue Yanokami. Scheduled performances went on as planned, and their second album was released in December 2011 using what recordings Harakami had completed. Yanokami continues to perform with guest artists including U-Zhaan, Yoshinori Sunahara (砂原良徳), Illreme (イルリメ), and Maki Morishita (森下真樹).
