Graphic Designer James A. Kendall leads a secret life as a musician under the alias "EMo". He wishes to learn the answer to the question: "What is the Matrix?" Cryptic messages appearing on his computer monitor and an encounter with several sinister record label A&R’s leads him to a group led by the mysterious Yona, a man who offers him the chance to learn the truth about the Matrix. EMo accepts and plays a CD. After placing on his headphones he wakes up naked listening to FM radio, his mind connected by wires to a vast signal tower with lines into every home. The connections are severed and he is rescued by Yona and taken aboard his hovercraft, the MorningStar. EMo's neglected mind is restored, and Yona explains the situation.
The year is estimated to be around 2008, and humanity is fighting a war against intelligent record labels created in the early 19th century. The sky is covered in thick black clouds created by the humans in an attempt to cut off the labels' supply of radio and TV power. The record labels responded by using human beings as their energy source, growing countless people in pods and harvesting their minds and money. The world which EMo has inhabited since birth is the Matrix, an illusory simulated reality construct of the world of 1970, developed by the labels to keep the human population docile. Yona and his crew are a group of free humans who "unplug" others from the Matrix and recruit them to their resistance against the labels. Within the Matrix they are able to use their understanding of its nature to bend the laws of music within the simulation, giving them superhuman abilities. Yona believes that EMo is "the One", a man prophesied to end the war through his limitless control over the Matrix.
