My favorite YMO album. Solid State Survivor.
Technopolis, Rydeen (is there a more happy synth tune out there), behind the mask, so much groove and so much dopamine inducing timbres. And the beautiful darkness of castalia and of insomnia. this Yellow Magic Orchestra album sold over 2 million #vinyl copies and we'll over a quarter million #cassette
