DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Rika Kayama, a psychiatrist at the Hobetsu Medical Clinic in Mukawa-cho, Hokkaido, supervised and produced the music for this masterpiece, which is the gold standard of Japanese ambient techno from the 1990s, and has now miraculously been officially reissued on analog vinyl!
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED FOR FANS OF POiSON GiRLFRiEND!!
The main composer/arranger is Masayuki Sakamoto, a renowned producer, arranger, and keyboard player who is also known for his album “PSYCHE” ('87). He was also featured on NHK's music program “Sound Street” in a special feature on demo tapes introduced by Ryuichi Sakamoto.
Rika Kayama herself also teamed up with her brother Keigai Nakatsuka, a musician/dentist, to compose the music.
This is the first official reissue of a work that fills a missing piece of 90s Japanese techno, and was also praised by Yukihiro Takahashi of YMO, who wrote the liner notes at the time, while also being extremely good as euphoric classic Japanese house that will stick with fans of Soichi Terada and Shinichiro Yokota!

Plays great, looks super cool! This music (and movie) are deeply special to me, so glad you had this on vinyl!
This item came perfectly wrapped and sealed, helix sounds is an amazing seller and I would gladly buy from them again
For all fans, this is a must-buy. Especially hooked by the track Wind, which is the very first ending of the anime.
This album sounds as good and hits as hard as it did when it was released! Extra fun getting it from Helix Sounds, they always have the best stuff :)

I got this for my husband as a gift and he really loved it. Great sound and beautiful color. I’m so glad I got this vinyl.
Beautiful vinyl. Good price. Came packaged well.
Really happy with the vinyl box set. It was sent quickly, well packaged and made it to Australia unscathed 😊
Came exactly as described and in perfect condition, the best shipment service on vinyls I’ve ever had. Fast and accurate, I’ve had records ordered for almost a month with another store and these guys continually beat out all other stores for shipment. I just ordered again from them, highly recommend.
The album arrived well packaged, in impeccable condition. Love the service. Love this album!
Great shop, I can only recommend it.
