m.o.v.e (formerly known as move) is a three-piece group on the avex trax label.
Longtime friends motsu and t-kimura had always wanted to work with each other, but, because of conflicting record contracts, did not get the opportunity to do so until 1997. yuri was spotted on a televised audition of the program ASAYAN, and was chosen by t-kimura who believed that her voice would suit his type of music very well. They made their debut as a group in October of that year with the single "ROCK IT DOWN."
The name "move" was chosen with the idea that the group would not stick to one form of music, and would always be in pursuit of new styles. Staying true to this intention, m.o.v.e's songs cover and mix styles like Eurobeat, rock, techno, trance, [J-Pop]], Latin, and more recently electronica. The wide variation of styles has led to a divided fanbase in terms of favored sound, although there are fans who like the numerous sounds m.o.v.e has taken on.
In 2005, m.o.v.e was selected as the first Asian participant in the contest, in which people would remix an English version of "FREAKY PLANET". In addition to this, m.o.v.e began to release songs over the American iTunes store, usually English version of certain songs and remixes featured on previous albums. It is also during this time period that the formatting was changed from move to m.o.v.e, due to issues with registering trademarkes for the former formatting in the States. As an acronym, the name has no known meaning and is still pronounced as the English word "move."
Most English-speaking fans know them best for providing several themes for the anime series Initial D.
In 2009, t-kimura announced that he was stepping down from being a member of the group, but continue to being their main producer.
