In our next Visions podcast, we pay tribute to the remarkable music career of Yukihiro Takahashi, who sadly passed away on January 11th after bravely battling cancer for several years. He was 70 years old. Most prominently known as the lead singer and drummer of Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO), Yukihiro Takahashi co-founded the band alongside music legends Ryuichi Sakamoto and Haruomi Hosono. YMO were trailblazers in introducing electronic sounds to pop music, exerting a significant influence on early British synth-pop bands. Alongside Kraftwerk, they played a vital role in popularizing synthesizers.

While the German band adopted a more robotic and minimalistic approach, shaping techno as a genre in late 80s Europe, the Japanese counterpart masterfully infused humanity into the world of computers and machines they utilized to create their music.

Beyond his involvement with YMO, Yukihiro Takahashi enjoyed a flourishing solo career, releasing classics like the Afro-Brazilian and French pop-influenced "Saravah!" (1979) and the new wave masterpiece "Neuromantic" (1981). He also produced songs for various pop artists in Japan and overseas, including Sandii & The Sunsetz and Pierre Barouh. Collaborating with Steve Jansen, he co-created the quintessential synth-pop anthem "Stay Close" (1986).

In later years, heavily influenced by his long-time collaborator Cornelius, Yukihiro Takahashi formed the glitch pop duo Sketch Show with Mr. Hosono. Together, they continued to explore and experiment with the new forms of music in the new millennium. Their songs ingeniously deconstructed music electronically, utilizing intermittent and repetitive clips and bits of sound while preserving the inherent human soul that always resonated in their compositions.

Impressively, his career spans more than four decades of solo records, collaborations, productions, and session credits. Tracking his extensive body of work might be challenging, but one thing is certain: we will always hear echoes of his brilliance in today's music and those to come in the future. Yukihiro Takahashi's legacy remains an enduring influence on the music world.

Ben's Wrongplace - 24.02.23

This is a live and unedited (as you will hear) recording of my set on @WPRB-princeton 103.3 FM promoting our June 1984 event featuring Josh Cheon of Dark Entries. Thank you to Jessica for accepting my request for promotional support and my suggestion to play an all vinyl set on air.. and also of course to Sara, Harry, Freddie and the crew in the studio!!! Undaunted by thunderstorms, construction, strict campus parking, and equipment set-up (it was the first time vinyl was played on-air in a few years I think) this happened :)

Because of my typical loose improvisational style, you'll hear a few wing-it mixes and choices. Let the artists' brilliant work speak for itself, I'm just the messenger.. and TURN IT UP \m/

DJing since 2001, Anchoret cut his teeth in the east coast night life living in NYC in the early 2000s. By 2010, he had a handful of releases under his belt and proceeded to launch Kiss & Kry Records after moving to Boston.   KKR became an outlet for experimental dubby minimal techno which would end up being his calling card a decade later. 
Now residing in Pittsburgh, Anchoret has appeared on Solar Phenomena Music label and the 3024 label.  Remixes and collabs with Anchoret are beginning to pile up as his hidden treasures are beginning to be played by very prominent DJs in the central and Eastern Europe scenes. Expect a lot more magic from him in the near future.
