Neuromantic (Japanese: ニウロマンティック) is the third studio album by Japanese multi-instrumentalist Yukihiro Takahashi, released on May 24, 1981 by Alfa Records. Self-produced, the album featured Takahashi's YMO colleagues Haruomi Hosono and Ryuichi Sakamoto, as well as contributions from Tony Mansfield of New Musik and Roxy Music's Phil Manzanera and Andy Mackay. The title is a pun on the early 1980s British fashion movement, the New Romantics.
All lyrics are written by Yukihiro Takahashi and Peter Barakan; all music is composed by Takahashi, except where noted
