Tokyo's Coolest Sound

This is a compilation of songs by Yellow Magic Orchestra (and solo ones by each member too) selected by Towa Tei for YMO's 40th anniversary. The album was remastered by Sunahara Yoshinori. The jacket artwork was done by Tomoo Gokita (known for his artwork for Towa Tei and Metafive).

The CD is made using Sony's Blu-spec CD2 manufacturing process. A double vinyl edition of 12 of the songs is being released at the same time. It was cut by Bernie Grundman.
