Great show! I heard about you from Tabletop Genesis. In your chiptune rabbithole, did you come across YMO (Yellow Magic Orchestra)? I think they’re the most important foundation of J-synth, VGM, and its members have their fingers all over dozens of other ’80s city pop acts. If nothing else, please try their first two albums: Yellow Magic Orchestra (1978) and Solid State Survivor (1979).
