Something peculiar was born out of 1980s Japan, a class of ambient superstars. Up there with the greats like Brian Eno. At least, they would be...35 years later. Due to the unconventional nature of this movement, many creators spent their whole careers in obscurity. This was music funded, not by record labels, but by retail companies. Music that’s been sitting in corporate hard drives for decades. Only recent favoritism from the YouTube algorithm, music archivers, and subsequent album reissues have allowed us to really contextualize Japan’s ambient era. Let’s jump back to 1980s Tokyo, and explore the global boom of Japanese Ambient Music.
