CY8ER (read as "cyber") was a Japanese alternative idol girl group initially established by Ichigo Rinahamu and Nicamoq under the name BPM15Q in 2015. The ensemble grew to five members before concluding activities in January 2021. Their sound uniquely blended an EDM influence with a kawaii visual style.

History

BPM15Q was created in 2015 by Ichigo Rinahamu—previously associated with BiS and Akishibu Project—alongside DJ Nicamoq. The group's name symbolized its founding members: "15" derived from Ichigo Rinahamu's name (from ichi and go), and "Q" representing Nicamoq. As a duo, they released multiple tracks, with one reaching number three on iTunes' J-pop rankings. Their debut album, BPM15Q All Songs, was launched in November 2016 through Ichigo Rinahamu's label, Icigo Style.

Following Nicamoq's exit in December 2016, two new members joined: a former DJ and an ex-member of DEEP GIRL. This lineup change coincided with the group's rebranding to "CY8ER". After issuing two singles, three additional artists became part of the group in April 2017, including former members of Ice Cream Suicide and Bellring Shōjo Heart. The six-member formation attracted attention for a promotional event where performers wore complete chemical protective gear while embracing fans. Naatan Koromushi departed in March 2018. By April 2019, CY8ER had produced four more singles alongside one full album.

The group officially ceased activities on January 10, 2021, following their farewell concert at Nippon Budokan. In April 2022, the original duo announced their comeback as BPM15Q under the Victor Entertainment label.
