Yellow Magic Orchestra's self-titled debut album quickly established the band's reputation and showcased their unique blend of Japanese traditional music, disco grooves and an array of electronic sounds. The record, particularly notable for its integration of videogame sounds and effects, features compositions that maintain strong influences form the past and, while it lacks the refinement of their later outings, it remains an exhilarating display of trendy experimentation, serving as the foundation for the band's ongoing pursuit of pushing boundaries.
