Dance Found Art Noise Pop
Imagine the freedom Sakamoto must have felt fresh out of Yellow Magic Orchestra. Though they rewrote the rules of post-disco electronic dance music, the rut of catchy melodies led to sameness. His title "B-2 Unit" alludes to industrial noise but you'll find haunting spare vocal arrangements here also. This is one of the most influential albums of my life. I don't simply love it so much as acknowledge it as an intimate friend who has been my conscience through times easy and hard. This album is emotional and powerful. A neoelectronic rhythmic soundscape and an insistent projection of creative ego in a blast of noise and timbre. Not an "ambient" wandering piece of trendy crap, but real songs of great movement and variety. Not background or soundtrack music, but innovative, strong, rich and still delivers a catchy melody or two.
