Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |

 Classic CD
Submitted on: 2007-03-19 |

| First let me say that this is NOT a live cd like the review said. This is one of my all time favorite albums and the best from YMO. They of course were influenced by the Fathers of techno, Kraftwerk, yet have an original sound with a hint of Asian (Japanese)flavor. So many bands were touched by them and still copy their work through dubbing today. So great to hear it today even though it is 25 years plus old. Buy it. Listen and love something unique. |

early sampling genius

| This beautifully composed suite of songs is YMO's best; a solid set of compositions, mostly in a pop song format, using the early sampler technology of the Emulator. These songs transcend the sounds and rhythms of their day (1981). It's a groundbreaking electronic album that has, in my opinion yet to be matched in production quality and feel, even with today's huge variety of techno music. The translated lyrics are odd and beautiful poetry to start with, but also have the magical charm of Engrish. The musical sounds and lyrics combine to create a totally unique sonic world. The two instrumentals at the end use industrial sounds to great effect. A great pedagogical tool for composers and a real rare gem for lover's of the difficult to describe. |
