8. Yellow Magic Orchestra×∞Multiplies
They’re quite influential. Haruomi Hosono I like very much, and I just recently found out that he had such a big career before the Yellow Magic Orchestra already. Also they have this label, Yen Records, that’s very interesting. People say Yellow Magic Orchestra is the Kraftwerk of Japan, but it’s more than that, there’s a whole scene around it. A different sound. It reminds me of computer game music somehow, but at the same time something medieval…
