Information

Polyrhythm is Perfume's fifth major label single, and tenth overall. The title track was used as the NHK Kankyou Recycle Campaign Song. The single was released in a limited edition CD+DVD version (which includes the music video for Polyrhythm) as well as a CD only regular edition. This was Perfume's first single to be released in more than one edition. The limited edition is out of print and can fetch prices upwards of ¥10,000 ($100).

50 first press copies of the single were autographed by one of the 3 members. Those who received an autographed copy were entered in a promotional drawing. The title track is appropriately named after its polyrhythmic style in which different parts within the song are composed in different time signatures.

Perfume performed a Summer Sonic '07 original version of Polyrhythm at the Summer Sonic music festival in 2007. This is their first single to reach the top 10 on the Oricon Charts.

The single became the #186th best selling single of 2007. The single is certified Gold for the shipment of 100,000 copies.
