They are widely credited to have spearheaded the "Shibuya-kei" movement of Tokyo in the 90s, along with Flipper's Guitar.
They are known for their eclectic and energetic compositions, which often sound like "new" releases from the late 1960s hipster scene. Their catchphrase--"A New Stereophonic Sound Spectacular"--captured the group's ironic stance but eager attitude. The group broke up in March 2001.
A hugely prolific group, Pizzicato Five would release at least an album-per-year along with various EPs and remix albums during their 16 year-career.
Both Nomiya Maki (野宮真貴) and Konishi Yasuharu(小西康陽) currently enjoy solo careers - with Konishi Yasuharu(小西康陽) producing other artists ranging from Puffy and SMAP to Cornelius and kahimi karie(カヒミ・カリィ) - alongside collaborative remix compilations - from Ella Fitzgerald and The Supremes to classic Disney and Thunderbirds (as in Super-Marionated) music on his Shibuya-based Readymade Records label.
On Thursday March 31st, 2011, exactly 10 years after Pizzicato Five disbanded, Konishi Yasuharu announced a new solo project called Pizzicato One. The first release, titled One and Ten Very Sad Songs, consists of covers of English songs, each featuring vocals by various internationally-known artists from around the world.

小さくつぶやいてみる
KISS-今夜のキスのこと考えて
私はーすこしときめく
恋のはじまりが近づいてるの
息を切らして駆け足でやってくる
新しい口紅
新しい恋人によく似合う色は何色
パールとオレンジと
KISS-もう一度鏡の前で
小さくつぶやいてみる
きっとこれが愛のテーマ
今年の愛のテーマ
甘い甘い愛のテーマ
私たちの愛のテーマ
KISS-この夏は
新しい恋人とヴァカンス
すこしときめく
小さなバッグには小さな
カメラとノートと色鉛筆と
ピンクとパープルと
パールとオレンジと
新しいサングラス
新しいサンダルと
新しい水着も買うの
ジェット機で行きましょう
ファーストクラスでふたり
しばらくどこかへお忍びで出かける
きっとこれが愛のテーマ
今年の愛のテーマ
甘い甘い愛のテーマ
甘い甘い愛のテーマ
恋のはじまりが近づいてるの
息を切らして駆け足でやってくる
きっとこれが愛のテーマ
今年の愛のテーマ
甘い甘い愛のテーマ
