When they established the band, Yuki Murata came up with the name Anoise pronounced 'a noyce' to mean 'one noise'. However, they found that name had already been used by other artist via the internet, so they changed the spelling to Anoice.
Their debut album 'Remmings' was released on Important Records, Boston in 2006. Their talent was also admired by internationally famous musicians Ryuichi Sakamoto, Nobuo Uematsu, and Christian Fennesz. Anoice then released their highly-praised 3rd album, 'The Black Rain' worldwide in 2012, via their own music label, Ricco Label, and also Important Records in US and Flowers Blossom In The Space in Russia. This album was selected as one of the top albums of the year by many music review websites. The Russian hip-hop artist, MiyaGi used one of the album's tracks, 'ripple', as the the backing track for his song, and the music video has received 40 million views on YouTube.
In 2015, Anoice released the 4th album 'into the shadows' recorded in not only Tokyo, but also London, Paris, Warsaw, and Moscow. One of the album tracks 'old lighthouse' became the #1 trending track on Spotify as Japanese artists, and 'invasion’ was used as the credit roll tune of 'Girl Lost', a US movie which was the #1 trending movie on Amazon Prime Video. Two years later, Anoice released a compilation album 'selected works' featuring their ambient tracks on 1631 Recordings in Sweden and started to distribute it via Universal Music, they then embarked on European and Asian tours.
In 2019, Anoice released three consecutive weekly singles in May, and then released the 5th album 'Ghost in the Clocks' made from lovely melodies and magnificent orchestral sounds in August, which Anoice expressed the world that follows their 3rd album 'The Black Rain'. This album and each song within the album became the #1 and top 10 most streamed/downloaded instrumental music on Apple Music and iTunes Store in USA, Canada, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Germany, Spain, Russia, Belarus, Hungary, Latvia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Israel, Chile, Singapore, and Japan.

In 2020, because of the effects of the coronavirus, Anoice decided to cancel all upcoming tours but soon after, they released their 4th EP 'invisible wall' which they can only be expressed at a time like this. This EP mainly consists of quiet and dark neo-classical songs such as 'inner voice' featuring Films, two vocalists who sing in their own originally created languages in the same named project, Films, and 'the fear' which features Calu, the vocalist of the electronica unit, Matryoshka.
In 2021, Anoice released their 6th album 'The Hidden Forest' after the longest ever production period in their history. This album took inspiration from 17 paintings of the forest painted by Naoko Okada, and includes 17 songs with the same title as each of the paintings, with a total length of 72 minutes. This was released not only on normal jewel case, but also number-limited A4-sized box version which included 17 separate extraordinary-printed paintings.

Takahiro Kido and Yuki Murata also write and release work as solo artists. Collectively, Anoice and the side projects have released studio albums, EPs, singles, and soundtrack albums through various music labels such as Ricco Label, Important Records, 1631 Recordings, PLOP, noble label, and Shochiku Records.

~ I could listen to that song a thousand times and it would still hold sway over my heart and mind .... Amazing.
Its great to see Anoice in the studio in Black & White ... Sublime filming

Introspection. A hole to find who we are. This music is amazingly smooth but strong inside each one. Excellent job.
