Fantastic Plastic Machine (now abbreviated as FPM) is a Shibuya-kei ("Shibuya-style") dance music project by DJ Tomoyuki Tanaka. After the self-titled debut was released in 1997, Tanaka worked closely with Masayuki Kumahara and started to incorporate elements of Philly soul and house. In 2009, Tanaka, now abbreviating the name to FPM, started working with Takashi Watanabe and Yuzuru Tomita to pivot FPM to a much more streamlined electro house sound.
