Neuromantic is Yukihiro Takahashi's self-produced 1981 album and featured his YMO colleagues Haruomi Hosono and Ryuichi Sakamoto on keyboards. Tony Mansfield and Phil Manzanera also played on the album. The title of William Gibson's novel "Neuromancer" is inspired by this album's title, which is a pun on the early 1980s British fashion movement, the New Romantics.
