Last Century Modern is the fourth solo album from Japanese electronic musician Towa Tei. It is Tei's third album to be released in English-speaking markets, as his previous album Sweet Robots Against the Machine was issued in Japan only.

The album is more electronic-based than his previous releases, featuring house and drum and bass, and includes collaborations with a variety of artists, including French R&B duo Les Nubians, French singer Louis Philippe, classical string quartet the Balanescu Quartet, Japanese female singers UA and Chara, ex-YMO members Yukihiro Takahashi, Haruomi Hosono, Hiroshi Takano and Ayumi Tanabe.
