YELLOW MAGIC ORCHESTRA

One of the most interesting albums of the late seventies. A mix of early computer game sounds and Japanese techno. This album follows on from where Kraftwerk, Faust and Can left things and is a direct link with later bands like Depeche Mode and even Goldrapp.

Standout tracks include la Femme Chinoise and Yellow Magic (Tong Poo). If you are interested in the development of electronica this is a must have, if not then you're almost bound to be dissappointed.

It's only rated 3 stars because I don't feel it sits very comortably under a Progressive tag!
