Description
Pioneers, innovators, explorers, extraordinary, ambitious, fearless, contemporary, artistic, talented; these are just a few of the references made to identify YMO. The collaboration started in 1978 in Tokyo by keyboardist Ryuichi Sakamoto, drummer Yukihiro Takahashi and bassist Haruomi Hosono. YMO took their chance and showed the world what they were capable of with new technology made available to them at the time. In the course of their careers in the music business, YMO got involved in film music, collaborations with artists all over the scope (from Hip-Hop to Rock), inventing the House/Acid sound and getting involved in numerous projects. The impact of this Japanese trio is not to be reckoned with and has become a given, inspiring many in the music industry.
Service is an album where piano, bass and drum come together, in all its brilliance. Service seems to be more for the broader audience. Music is not the sole selling point for this album, like X00- Multiplies it is focused on comedy, performed between the songs by S.E.T group. MOCD has reissued the full album version, Enjoy!
