No More Landmine [N.M.L.] was a project started in 2001 by Ryuichi Sakamoto to raise awareness of land mines danger around the world. This cause has been supported by different individuals and organizations, including Princess Diana, His Holiness The Dalai Lama and ICBL (International Campaign to Ban Landmines, which received the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize). Sakamoto met a Scottish man Chris Moon, who lost his hand and leg while removing a land mine, and traveled with him to Mozambique, to the original site where this tragic event happened.

Sakamoto built a root for his 'musical journey' over countries which are most damaged by land mines: The Korean Peninsula, Cambodia, connecting through India and Tibet to Bosnia and finally over to African continent, Angola and Mozambique. He invited a wide array of Japanese and foreign artists to participate in recording of each musical segment, also adding samples of ethnic and traditional music. David Sylvian wrote lyrics for the main song, and Ryu Murakami translated them into Japanese. Kraftwerk sent a 'sound logo' titled Zero Landmine over the Internet, which was the first time Sakamoto ever heard from the band in 20 years. Other contributions include Brian Eno sounds, DJ Krush and EYƎ Yamataka scratches, Arto Lindsay guitar.
