Logic System-Logic+Venus,LPs,1981,Japan


Logic System is a musical project of Hideki Matsutake. Hideki started as an assistant for Isao Tomita in the 70's and is well-known as the sequencer programmer and modular synthesizer operator for the Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO), but he wasn't a member of YMO. He worked on several of their albums and toured with his huge collection of synths. He also did sequencing work for numerous technopop albums for other artists, particularily in the early 80's. In 1996 he performed in a big concert event organized by Isao Tomita and was also guest on Towa Tei albums.
From Discogs
Great first 2 LPs by this influential and much important Japanese band. Amazing computer generated synth sounds creating excellent synth popish songs. Logic was posted ages ago elsewhere but link is dead ,so here it is.
get them here and here

  1. wow, a producer I recognise on mutant sounds... that's a first :)

    The Venus LP is a bit muzaky for me but "Domino Dance" from "Logic" is out of this world

  5. THANKS! These are great.

    I noticed Track 6 on Logic System ("Talk Back") has a skip at 2:53. I'd really appreciate it if you fixed that sometime, since it's such a wonderful track otherwise, but no complaints here either way!
