This review is from: Us (Audio CD)

I picked up this CD while travelling through Narita Airport last October because I was looking for something interesting. Having never (to my knowledge) heard Ryuichi Sakamoto before, I was pleasantly surprised by this collection. Although some of the songs are 20 years old, the entire collection feels relevant today and refreshing, probably due to Mr. Sakamoto's unique style. The experiments in sound that you will find here are diverse, but develop into engaging pieces that will leave you asking for more. My favorites in the collection are Moving On, Self Portrait, and the first two tracks on disc two.
