RYDEENYellow Magic Orchestra
Some people may feel uncomfortable discussing YMO (Yellow Magic Orchestra) under the umbrella of fusion, but the obi strip on the analog release of their 1978 self-titled debut album actually listed the genre as fusion.
Add to that guitarist Masayoshi Takanaka’s participation in the recordings of Tong Poo and Cosmic Surfin’, as well as Yukihiro Takahashi’s background with the Sadistics, and it seems there was a period when they were understood in that context for various reasons.
In any case, as pioneers of technopop whose innovative music fused a wide range of genres, perhaps YMO truly should be called “fusion” in the literal sense.
It’s fascinating that digging into Japanese jazz fusion inevitably leads you to YMO.
