Shimoda formed Silent Poets in 1991 with friends he met at art school in Tokyo.
Their debut album "6 pieces 'sense at this moment'" was released from FILERECORDS in 1992.
In the following year, Silent Poets became a duo comprised of Michiharu Shimoda and Takahiro Haruno, and released "Potential Meeting" from Toy's Factory. Silent Poets has released six original albums and seven remix albums/EPs until now. Gaining international recognition, Silent Poets has been featured in countless music/fashion magazines, and in over 30 compilations around the world ranging from the USA, UK, France, Germany, and Italy, including the well known "Cafe Del Mar" compilation.
In 2000, the album "TO COME..." was released from Yellow Productions in France, and was also released in the U.S. in 2001 from Atlantic. In the summer of the same year, Haruno left the group and Silent Poets became Shimoda's solo project.
During that time, Shimoda composed the music for Issey Miyake's Paris collections, remixed countless artists, and produced tracks for the BEAMS 25th anniversary project "Hotel id+". He has also contributed a track to Tadanobu Asano's first short film "Tori".
On November 30, 2005, Shimoda's latest full length "Sun" was relased after a 6 year hiatus. The album featured DJ Yellow from poussez! (formerly from Yellow Productions) as co-producer, string arranger Everton Nelson, and vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Shawn Lee. The album was released in France on May of 2006, and in the US, UK, and Germany to critical acclaim.
In March of 2007, the 15th anniversary best hits albums "Silent Poets Ultimet Collection 'Sound Of Silence'" Vol. 1 and Vol.2 were released which included DVD's.
