About this product

Digitally remastered reissue of this album by the ground-breaking Japanese electronic trio. This was YMO's first live recorded album and their second number #1 album in Japan. Several concerts were recorded, all in 1979 (The Venue in London, Greek Theater in LA, Bottom Line in NYC, Sun Plaza in Nakano). Unfortunately due to contract issues with the record company, Kazumi Watanabe guitar playing was removed from this and compensated with keyboards from Haruomu Hosono, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Akiko Yano. Evidently this album contains first class recordings, clear and sparkling; YMO is at it's best with an audience. Akiko Yano is a welcomed addition to YMO, with her sublime vocals she completes YMO as a band. This live recorded album has a much more relaxed approach to the music; it almost feels like they're jamming on stage and having fun with the music and clearly enjoying themselves! Album Tracks 1. Rydeen 2. Solid State Survivor 3. Tong Poo 4. The End of Asia 5. Cosmic Surfin' 6. Day Tripper 7. Radio Junk 8. La Femme Chinoise 9. Back in Tokio

Yellow Magic Orchestra - Technodelic   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Digitally remastered edition of this album by the Japanese electronic pop band. 1981 was a groundbreaking year for the music industry. By releasing BGM and Technodelic in one year, YMO made a shift happen in pop music. YMO introduced a new way of using samples and loops by cutting soundbites into fragments and reprogramming them with newly available computer technology. Technodelic is far more experimental then previous albums, and at the same time this fifth album is more minimalistic and full of funk and soul. Having released this much loved album, YMO remain remarkable and insanely great at inventing new ways of looking at compositions and creating a whole new music scene at the same time. Food for thought if Technodelic wasn't this great, what would the dance music scene sound like today? Album Tracks 1. Pure Jam 2. Neue Tanz 3. Stairs 4. Seoul Music 5. Light in Darkness 6. Taiso 7. Gradated Grey 8. Key 9. Prologue 10. Epilogue
