BOOM BOOM SATELLITES (ブンブンサテライツ, Bun Bun Sateraitsu) are a Japanese electronic music duo consisting of Michiyuki Kawashima and Masayuki Nakano. While their music can be mostly classified as big beat or nu skool breaks, and they are heavily influenced by jazz, they are famous for using a lot of electric guitars and the final product often has a strong rock or punk flavor. In 2004, they contributed numerous songs to the soundtrack of the anime film Appleseed, in the 2007 anime film Vexille, and most recently in the Playstation store exclusive anime series Xam'd: Lost Memories. They are currently signed to Sony Music Entertainment Japan, with whom they have released all of their albums in Japan.
Boom Boom Satellites' sixth full length studio album, Exposed was released on 21 November 2007. "What Goes Round Comes Around" (which has been featured in a commercial for Dodge) and "Easy Action" (which is featured in the film Vexille) are two of the songs featured on this album.[1] The fourth track from this album, "Shut Up And Explode," is the current opening theme to the anime Xam'd: Lost Memories (亡念のザムド, Bōnen no Zamudo). [2]
The track Scatterin' Monkey from their 1999 album "Out Loud" is featured in the 2008 film The Dark Knight (film) during a club scene involving Salvatore Maroni
