Born in Tokyo, raised in Brazil, and educated in French schools, Noriko Sekiguchi, also known as POiSON GiRL FRiEND, first found the music that would inspire her own work in London. She became infatuated with the UK and US house music that was filling the city in the mid to late 1980s, before returning to Tokyo, bringing the music with her to the city's clubs as a DJ. Releasing multiple albums, the POiSON GiRLFRiEND project – featuring a house and breakbeat-infused pop and R&B sound – reached minor commercial and critical acclaim.
