Yellow Magic Orchestra (1978) more music like this

by Yellow Magic Orchestra

Leading off with their only British hit, the Top 20 entry "Computer Game," Yellow Magic Orchestra's debut album launches the group as a Japanese novelty act in keeping with Kraftwerk. "Computer Game" is about what it sounds like, while "Firecracker" and "Cosmic Surfin" drift along with Oriental melodies playing over the top of an unobtrusive synth ...

BGM

BGM (1981) more music like this

by Yellow Magic Orchestra

BGM stands for "background music," and one could be mistaken for thinking that this is an album of ambient-sounding tracks. Instead, it's a continuation of YMO's techno aesthetic, focusing more on Takahashi's distorted vocals and similarly liquid synth sounds, which give much of the album a melancholic air. There's also the sense of a group ...

Solid State Survivor

Solid State Survivor (1979) more music like this

by Yellow Magic Orchestra

The trio hit their stride with second album Solid State Survivor, a brisk and confident set of synth-disco-pop that continues along the line drawn five years before by Kraftwerk. Fun-loving and breezy where Kraftwerk had been ponderous and statuesque, the album sets out YMO's template for electronic pop with less minimalism and a more varying use ...

80's New Wave, Vol. 2: Electronic 80's

80's New Wave, Vol. 2: Electronic 80's (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

The second volume of Polymedia's 80's New Wave series focuses on more singles from the new wave era, most of which feature the use of synthesizers and/or drum programming. Many of the songs -- including Gary Numan's "Cars," Soft Cell's "Tainted Love," Kraftwerk's "The Model," Thomas Dolby's "She Blinded Me With Science," and Yello's "Oh Yeah" -- ...

Hi-Tech/No Crime: Yellow Magic Orchestra Reconstructed (1993) more music like this

Hi-Tech/No Crime: Yellow Magic Orchestra Reconstructed is an excellent tribute to the groundbreaking Japanese electronic band the Yellow Magic Orchestra.

Xoo Multiplies

Xoo Multiplies (1980) more music like this

by Yellow Magic Orchestra

Xoo Multiplies is a bizarre album filled with singalong pop songs, a few interludes including commercial jingles and ad-men pitches, and no less than two versions of the Drells' chestnut "Tighten Up." There are a few solid electronic tunes ("Nice Age," "Citizens of Science") amid the chaos, plus instrumental versions of "Chaos Panic" and "Lotus ...

Technodelic

Technodelic (1981) more music like this

by Yellow Magic Orchestra

Widening their vision of synth-pop to include the darker strains of urban/R&B as well as a few vocals indebted to Roxy Music, 1981's Technodelic proved a high-quality album that showed Yellow Magic Orchestra had the talent and inspiration to grow beyond Kraftwerk-derived electronic pop heavy on the novelty but a bit light on bending genres. Though ...

Naughty Boys

Naughty Boys (1983) more music like this

by Yellow Magic Orchestra

Posturing themselves as the synth-pop stars they already were (though only strictly speaking), Naughty Boys is more of a landmark for Japanese pop than electronic music. Beginning with the synth-pop hit "Kimi Ni Mune Kyun" (featuring vocals just as accomplished as its production), the album clearly sounds different; previous YMO material had never ...

Kyoretsu Na Rhythm (1992) more music like this

by Yellow Magic Orchestra

When Restless gained American control of YMO's catalog in the '90s, it released this compilation. Kyoretsu Na Rhythm covers most of the bases that any sensible "best-of" should, yet it doesn't feel rounded or complete. Maybe it's the chronologically backward track listing; maybe it's the exclusion of most of the tracks from Solid State Survivor ...

YMO in the '90s: The Pete Lorimar Remix (1990) more music like this

by Yellow Magic Orchestra

As a precursor single to 1992's YMO remix album, Hi-Tech/No Crime, this 13-minute megamix by producer and engineer Pete Lorimar appeared as one in a series of "In the '90s" maxi-singles (compiled on Sumo Stomp). Lorimar builds a bed of techno-house and JB's breakbeats over which he drops in serious fragments of such YMO hits as "Firecracker," ...
