I played this twice at work today.

One thing I like about being to go only is that I can play whatever I want and play it twice in a row if I want too.

Before I'd censor what I played depending on who was hanging out.

I know Sakamoto from YMO but a fellow music head friend of mine came in and we were talking about what's playing. He knew Sakamoto via minimalist German electronic composers. He gave me a few albums to check out, they were good.

I don't know much about them aside from listening to their albums and watching live shows but it I get the impression that the three guys from YMO have led amazing lives full of artistic productivity and good vibes. This was just another pin in the map of my regard for the things members of that band have done.

Thanks for posting, I saw this other places but didn't click it until seeing a hubski post of it.
