Inhave been looking for this instrumental for 41 years and I found it scrolling IG and saw Boogaloo Shrimp pop locking to it back in 1983 from Japan. Great memories. I 1st heard it from DJ Kid Capri on WBLS 107.5 in New York
Just found this banger in my dad's record collection, he was a DJ back in late 70s early 80s. I found this yellow 12 inch record just chilling at back of the shelf.
I recorded this song in 1979 in north of Chile, in a BASF LHSM 60 kset, the sound is still good. So since this time I'm looking for the name and the singers... and ! this is the day! I found it, thanks YMO Unofficial, thanks shazam thanks youtube. simple things that made a day (This is the day, when things fall into place ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Nxazmzy0vAo.html )
Am I first person in the world as Finnish high schooler on his summer vacation listening to this in front of my summer cabin after eating macarone casserole? Edit: absolute bänger😯
I paid a dollar for this CD about six months ago. I had heard of YMO but never listened to them, probably coz their albums were $15+ at MusicMarket in Costa Mesa when I was buying lots of Kraftwerk and stuff like that in the 1980s. Glad I finally played it. It sounds just like what my kids listen to now haha but with more complex countermelodies and multirhythm goo. BTW if you like this YMO album you might also check out Telex- Neurovision.
Ahem.... they offered it as a techno-homage to its creator, MARTIN DENNY, and it is SOOOOO "LAYERED", you need today's tech to really enjoy all the magic these guys "squeezed" into this. They are literally dancing through this weaving of percussion and synth punctuation. This is top-drawer stuff (and it helps to know a bit about musical composition). A tip of the hat to FRANZ LIZST at 3:35 (artistic inside joke). These guys were WAY AHEAD of their time, and this labor of love still rocks even today. Tell the kids to put COWBOY BEEBOP on hold and meditate on this!
