Akiko Yano - Tadaima.

Yano’s fith studio album, Tadaima, which translates “I’m home” in Japanese, was recorded in 1981 and saw Yano embrace electronic influences for the first time. As a producer and composer, Yano was something of a maverick operator in a very male-dominated industry. Tadaima was co-produced by her then husband Ryuichi Sakamoto, featuring all the members of YMO, with whom she was touring at the time. As the label says: “The result is a fascinating electro pop masterpiece showcasing her talent as a writer, musician and singer, creating her own unique universe.”
