Contents

Upon its release, Perfume: Complete Best was met with generally positive reviews from music critics. Many critics admitted their disapproval of the album's material at first, but retrospectively commended the album's composition and production. Commercially, Perfume: Complete Best was a moderate success. The album reached number 33 on Japan's Oricon Albums Chart, whilst a limited edition reached number 66. After Perfume's 2008 debut studio album Game reached the top of the Oricon Albums Chart, Perfume: Complete Best reached number 25 on the same chart.

Background

In 2003, following their graduation from the Actors School in Hiroshima, Perfume moved to Tokyo to further establish themselves as a musical project. There, they became a part of Bee-Hive and signed with the management office Amuse, Inc. [3] In Tokyo, they met Japanese producer and Capsule member Yasutaka Nakata; Bee-Hive later hired Nakata to produce the groups beginning material. [4] Between the years of 2003 and 2004, Nakata produced three singles; "Sweet Donuts", "Monochrome Effect", and "Vitamin Drop" under Bee-Hive Records. [5] [6] [7] Commercially, none of the singles were particularly successful prior to their release, barely scraping the top 100 on Japan's Oricon Singles Chart. [8] [9] [10]

Because of the lack of success from the first three singles, Bee-Hive Records decided to release Perfume and give them to Tokuma Japan Communications for bigger prospects. [11] Working with Nakata through Tokuma Japan Communications and Contemode (his label with Yahama Music Communications), the collaboration spawned a series of singles including "Linear Motor Girl", "Computer City", and "Electro World". [12] [13] [14] The result was slightly more successful, giving Perfume their first three top 100 singles and one top 50 with "Computer City". [15] [16] [17] In July 2006, Perfume confirmed they would release a compilation album consisting of one new recording, plus their previous work. [18]

Composition

Perfume: Complete Best is an electronic dance album that borrows numerous musical elements including technopop, electro house and J-pop. [19] [20] [21] [22] According to staff reviews from CD Journal and Greg from Selective Hearing, every track includes electronic music elements; Greg commented "Everything but the last track is an uptempo, happy pop kind of song. You figure hearing 11 tracks of that kind of music would be annoying but it’s not. There’s enough variety in each track to make the journey worthwhile." [20] Perfume: Complete Best includes singles released from their previous record label Bee-hive Records ("Sweet Donuts", "Monochrome Effect", "Vitamin Drop"), and previous work with Tokuma Japan Communications ("Linear Motor Girl", "Computer City", "Electro World"). [23] The album features four b-side tracks from their previous singles; "Inryoku", "Foundation", "Computer Driving", "Perfume", and "Wonder2", and one new song; "Perfect Star Perfect Style". [23]

Release and packaging

Perfume: Complete Best was released in three different formats on August 2, 2006 by Tokuma Japan Communications. The CD and DVD format features the twelve tracks in a jewel case and a bonus DVD that includes music videos to "Linear Motor Girl", "Computer City", "Electro World", and "Vitamin Drop". [23] First press editions including an obi and a cardboard sleeve case. [23] A limited edition CD and DVD format features the twelve tracks, and a bonus DVD includes music videos to "Linear Motor Girl", "Computer City", "Electro World", and "Vitamin Drop". [24] It was published in a jewel case with some editions with a cardboard sleeve; First press editions included an obi. [24] The final format was a digital release that was released in Japan only on that same release date. [25] One cover sleeve for Perfume: Complete Best has Perfume inside a white room, posing towards the camera. This booklet was featured on all three formats. [23] [24] [25]

In February 2012, the group had signed a record contract with Universal Music Japan after leaving Tokuma Japan Communications to record their third album JPN . [26] They signed a global record contract with Universal Music Group to release JPN globally, but received rights by Tokuma Communications to release their discography globally, and Perfume: Complete Best was subsequently released worldwide in March 2012 digitally. [27] In November 2015, Perfume and Universal (with publishing rights from Tokuma and Crown Tokuma) announced the re-release of all their studio albums, including Perfume: Complete Best, in the form of vinyl LPs in a collective 0box set. [28] The LP edition of Perfume: Complete Best was released in two editions; part of the box set entitled Perfume Complete LP Box, and a limited edition singular release on February 17, 2016.

Perfume: Complete Best received favourable reviews from most music critics. A reviewer from Channel-Ai awarded the album three-and-a-half stars out of five. The reviewer stated "For people who just can’t stand techno, Perfume won’t be to their liking no matter how catchy the songs are. However, for those who find electronica tolerable or enjoyable, Perfume will be a group to their liking." The reviewer concluded, "Even though it is a best of collection, the album has a sense of continuity. Despite having misses in this album, particularly amongst the not so stellar b-sides included, Perfume: Complete Best remains an[sic] unique and enjoyable j-pop experience." [21] A reviewer from CD Journal was positive, who commended the album's different mixture of genres and the groups "techno-idol" image. [19]

Greg from Selective Hearing was fairly positive, though he stated "I only have one issue with this group. That has to do with the processed vocals in some of the songs. When the effect is on I can’t really tell who’s singing. I find it a little distracting, but not enough to make me hit the stop button." In conclusion, he stated "This is a great album & a perfect introduction to their music. I’m glad I gave them another shot." [20] A reviewer from Amazon Japan was positive, who highlighted "Linear Motor Girl", "Computer City", and "Electro World" as the album's best tracks. [22]

Commercial performances

The standard format of Perfume: Complete Best debuted at number 53 on the Japanese Daily Oricon Albums Chart.

[36] After Perfume's 2008 debut studio album Game reached the top of the Oricon Albums Chart, Perfume: Complete Best reached number 25 on the same chart. [37] [38] The album spent over 100 weeks in the top 300 chart, and sold over 170,000 units by 2008.
