"Closing out the
Special Sound Series
in style, we are proud to present the long-awaited vinyl reissue of
Shigeo Sekito
's 1985, an instrumental masterpiece that arrived nearly a decade after his iconic
Kareinaru Electone Special Sound Series
of the 1970s. A true pioneer in the world of Electone music, Sekito's name -- instantly recognizable in katakana -- has left an indelible mark on the genre. This album showcases his signature artistry across eight captivating tracks, blending originals and covers with his distinct sonic palette. The cosmic allure of the original composition 'Amish At Dusk' stands out among the set, while the
Manhattan Transfer
cover 'Twilight Zone, Twilight Tone' brims with dynamic, fast-paced arrangements. Meanwhile, Sekito's take on
The Crusaders
' 'Rhapsody And Blues' unfolds with a laid-back groove, gradually building into an uplifting crescendo. Drifting between chill-out and ambient sensibilities, 1985 captures a wistful, melancholic beauty -- where the rich textures of the Electone transport listeners into a world of nostalgia and dreamlike introspection. This final reissue in the series is a must-have for collectors and fans alike. Experience 1985 in its warm, analog glory -- now on vinyl."
