D8mn. I knew Ryuichi Sakamoto was battling cancer.

 

I didn't realize Yukihiro Takahashi had his own health issues. Helluva musician. RIP. 😎

Sad news. Oddly enough, I first encountered him in the Sadistic Mika Band, with this Dr. Demento-worthy track.


YMO deserved more credit than it got as a Japanese, semi-flipped version of Tangerine Dream. They were more danceable, whereas TD was experimental. I always remember them as my entry to Ryuichi Sakamoto's works.

That live concert in the obit is awesome. Wish I'd seen them live. Didn't know the cancer hat hit more than one of them in that group.
