Back in the 70's, I went to a laser show, at the London Planteteriumn, & heard Tomita tracks, like this, for the very First Time! We were "transported" into the heavens of that domed ceiling, with the planets, all around us! Wonderful memories! Been a lifelong fan of Tomita, ever since! Love the Bermuda Triangle!
@DollaTwo Exactly. I didn't realize how diverse he was in his samples. Not many artist use samples of this enriching calibur. This is relaxing to listen to.
@TheSeriousmrkarate And on TOP of that, listening to the sample and the finished product any decent listener can tell that they are related, but it's still baffling to me how Dilla flipped that sample into the banger he ended up with. Obviously he had a lot of "fun with pitchshifts", but there was so much more to it than just that. Dilla really had everything you could want in a great producer: good ear for samples, imaginative flips, knockin drums, and of course his trademark wobbly rhythms.
@FOTSOproductions Already man, so true on that. No doubt. The brilliance that can come out of the mind is fascinating. Alot of artists now days don't tap into that much at all. If and when they do, its rare.
Tomita's Moog was analogue but it did not have any tubes in it, even in the late 60's, early 70's when the Moog modular was made, synths were transistor based but still notoriously unstable. Tomita said that he used to work about six hours a day doing his music and the first couple of hours was to allow the Moog warm up and settle down other wise he would be constantly retuning it. Later versions had more stable oscillators which were much better and Tomita had the upgrades done by this album
Thanks for posting this Tomita's rendition of "A Night Bare Mountain".
The first time I heard a Tomita's song was on Jack Horkheimer: Star Gazer on PBS back in the early 80's. The track was Clair de Lune. Actually the first time I heard of Tomita was in the 70's when I was kid watching Kimba, a Japanese animation.
What can I say, that hasn't been said, bravo to you. It has been a long time since I heard this compilation. I use to listen to this one and Debussy over and over on my turntable in the 70's as a teen. It went well as music to read Sherlock Holmes too.
I listened to it it so much that I hear it playing while a symphony is playing it.
No need to say soory for a simple error my Friend. I bought the record LP when it first came out. I had a very good Dual/Yamaha stereo system. I use to BLAST some of Tomita's tracks. But I haven't heard this track in years! Until now. Your recording sounds deep and strong. It serpasses my LP by miles! Thanks for posting! I can listen to this for a long time.
I was really impressed with Tomita, first time I heard him in the 70s - Pictures at an Exhibition etc. All done on what must have been rudimentary synths. Good stuff!

The Artist named J Dilla has a song called Fun with Pitchshifts. He samples a section of this song here, the part that begins at 4:21. Epic.

At the primary school, I saw this classical version from Moussorgsky in the local theater
I am surprised to find it here in the version of Isao Tomita. I like his version of Pictures of an Exhibition from Moussorgsky also very much. .
