Tomita Isao "Space Fantasy", "Tomita on NHK"

Two albums by synthesizer maestro Tomita Isao were released this month.

The first, "Space Fantasy", is a 2-CD release of which the 1st CD is a collection of tracks from his "Planets" trilogy ("Cosmos", "Bermuda Triangle" and "Firebird") remastered in 4-channel surround sound and served on SACD Hybrid (a SuperAudio CD that's compatible with normal CD players). The 2nd CD is of previously unreleased songs that took inspiration from Disney's "Fantasia" movie, which strongly influenced Tomita.

The second release, titled "Tomita on NHK", is a reissue of the 2003 album of the same name, with bonus tracks "Pippo Pippo Bonbon", a rare version of "minna no sekai", and a new theme song that first aired last year as NHK BS Premium's "Premium Theater".

Both jackets were designed by Ukawa Naohiro (Dommune).
