Welcome back to another #SakuraUnderground. DJ Silent and DJ Sakura666 coming to you from the VFR studios, recorded on 1/21/2023. Please look forward to the sounds that were played that day.
We first start the show with a dedication to members of the band Yellow Magic Orchestra. An underrated japanese band from the 80s-90s, a very influential and imaginative group who had used electronic equipment in ways that was not the social norm for the times. Sadly singer and drummer Yukihiro Takahashi past last week 1/14/2023. RIP
and Ryuichi Sakamoto keys and vocals, celebrated his birthday 1/17 he turned 71!
