YMO - Loom
I don't like Yellow Magic Orchestra, I don't like the sounds of their tracks, maybe because they are children of a decade that, although it produced undeniable milestones, I don't feel resonates with me. I don't think I have an aversion to the '80s for age reasons; I wasn't even born in the '70s and '60s, but the classic sound aesthetic of the '80s, with all those synths and drum machines, just doesn't sit well with me.
Anyway, to get back to YMO, one track still pleases me, among the few I remember, probably because it's stripped of typical sounds, we're almost in Ambient territory, with sonorities much closer to my sensibility.
