Yellow Magic Orchestra - Music Plans (2019 Bob Ludwig Remastering)
The structures, sounds, and vocal harmonies of Kraftwerk, New Order, Art of Noise, Scritti Politti, and YMO are the pinnacle of the electro/wave/synth pop scene. Magic that I find trapped or confined within the static format of Gary Numan, in the Foxx of Metamatic and his peers... they could have pushed it further, especially considering John who distanced himself from Ultravox precisely to explore and experiment with sound language.
