Technodon is the eighth and final studio album by Japanese electronic music band Yellow Magic Orchestra. Released in 1993, it was their first album in almost a decade after the band's original breakup in 1984. Because the name Yellow Magic Orchestra was owned by former record label Alfa Records, the band were forced to release the album under the name YMO. For the tour that followed, they were billed as Not YMO. Future releases by the group would be made under the names Human Audio Sponge and HASYMO. The album abandons much of the group's previous synth-pop style, instead adopting a more ambient techno and acid house sound. Yukihiro Takahashi mainly used drum machines for the record as opposed to a drum kit.
