Artists and bands like Boy George and Roxy Music popularized the look and feel of the New Romantic style.Neuromantic: Yukihiro Takahashi's 1981 solo album. A pun on New Romantic and a reference to Takahashi's own neurosis. Neuromantic may have all three members of Yellow Magic Orchestra, but this was Takahashi's chance to showcase his incredible musicianship. He collaborated with Andy McKay and Phil Manzera of the aforementioned Roxy Music to create a masterpiece that wasn't afraid to challenge the listener with its futuristic cyberpunk-esque sound.DJ/Curator/Producer Mark "Frosty" McNeill joins us to talk about the European influence in Neuromantic, the process of creating the Pacific Breeze compilations, and how the boom of city pop has affected record labels and artists today.Check out our <a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4JhG8xddlRfkuHkYKdSai3?si=2d75a31e1b914c52">Spotify playlist</a> for this episode!
