"A showcase of this man's many facets at this point in time. Had a little bit of everything, some Frippertronics, some King crimson style music pieces and even a potential hit with Darryl Hall of Hall & Oates on lead vocals (You Burn me Up I'm a Cigarette)."  Reply

"Certainly, the first half of the record is considerably stronger than the second, but it is a very pretty and elegant experimental album by Ryuichi Sakamoto that's definitely worth a shot."  Reply

"A rainy day at the beach. You've brought all your closest friends with you and despite this weather, you still have the best time of your lives. The day ends with you all diving into the sea, it's so cold yet it's the perfect closer to the day."  Reply
