Arpanet is a music project that operates within the realm of electronic music, merging concepts of science, technology, and futuristic themes into its sonic identity. The name itself is a direct nod to the progenitor of the modern Internet, the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANET), reflecting the artist's thematic fascination with digital communication and cybernetic systems. Arpanet's music typically falls within the genres of electro and IDM, characterized by intricate, machine-like beats, enigmatic soundscapes, and a pervasive sense of the digital frontier.

With releases such as "Wireless Internet" and "Inertial Frame," Arpanet has established a recognizable sound that pays homage to the history of electronic communications while simultaneously exploring the aesthetic potential of modern digital sound. The project's 2002 album "Wireless Internet" was notably ahead of its time, focusing on themes of connectivity in an age when the wireless revolution was just beginning to gain momentum. "Inertial Frame," released in 2006, further showcased Arpanet's affinity for complex rhythms and thoughtful, experimental compositions. The "Reference Frame - EP" and the single "NTT DoCoMo" both continue this trajectory of marrying electronic precision with conceptual depth – the former being a concentrated dose of the project's sound, while the latter seemingly pays tribute to the Japanese telecommunication giant, suggesting an unending inspiration drawn from the world of data and communication technologies.
