Yellow Magic Orchestra – Technodelic

Jimi Tenor: This album was huge for me when I was about 19 to 20 years old. I love the synth sounds here. It sounds like they had some expensive gear in the studio and I think that’s exactly what they had in reality. I did some research and found out that they had some custom made samplers and stuff. I love the simplicity of the vocals and lyrics. It must have been a great hurdle for them to figure out English language lyrics. My favorite track is »Gradated Gray«. I listened to that over and over. The magical synth wind instrument is just sooo good. Perhaps it is a sample of some exotic wind instrument… I don’t know.
