Originally released in 1978, Haruomi Hosono’s tropical masterpiece under the Yellow Magic Band name stands as the final chapter in his legendary “Tropical Trilogy”, following Tropical Dandy (1975) and Bon Voyage Co. (1976).

A visionary fusion of exotic rhythms, island moods, and playful experimentation, this album bridges the warmth of Hosono’s tropical influences with the electronic sensibility that would soon define Yellow Magic Orchestra.

Featuring an all-star ensemble including Ryuichi Sakamoto, Taeko Onuki, and Shigeru Suzuki, the record captures a lush and imaginative sonic paradise — a true milestone in Japanese pop and world music history.

This long-awaited analog reissue has been newly remastered by Yoshinori Sunahara and cut by Bernie Grundman Mastering in Hollywood, ensuring pristine sound and the highest fidelity to Hosono’s original vision.

A must-have for fans of Hosono, YMO, and the golden age of Japanese experimental pop — an exquisite journey through the final island of his tropical soundscape.
