Currently listening to this and spinning around in my room-- jazz incorporated with tech/synth stuff is ughhhh. So good.
Trying to be hopeful for my future and keep myself together, avoiding creeping thoughts of self-consciousness, insecurity, and pain.

For your synth enjoyment on this fine Tuesday, here's "Perpetual (Movement)" by Jun Fukamachi off his 1980 album Quark. Starts off weird and ambient (i.e. good) before getting into the main body of the track, which gets fonkier with piano and some smoldering synth soloing

Album of the week #11
Jun Fukamachi - Starview HCT-5808
I want to live in the vibe of this album.
It also has a movie length visualizer, which I HIGHLY recommend watching.

Quark - Jun Fukamachi
If you haven't listened to this album before, you should. 4 ten minute tracks with so much personality on the synth.

Rokuyu (1975), On the Move (1978), Quark (1980), Solo Vol. 1 (1983), Nicole (86 Spring and Summer Collection - Instrumental Images) (1986). Jun Fukamachi
Jun Fukamachi was nothing if not versatile. Little was beyond his compositional bounds: on these releases alone he displayed perfect grasp of manic jazz-fusion and mental jazz rock (Rokuyu), funky, upbeat fusion (On the Move), transportive Berlin School electronics (Quark), delicate ambient jazz (Solo Vol. 1) and expressionistic extra-terrestrial orchestral drama (Nicole 1986). A master, truly.
Pick(s): ‘Meikyu’, ‘Dance of Paranoia Op. 2’, ‘Quark’, ‘Sarra’, ‘Urban Square’

A-T-2 241 Hiroshi Miyagawa & Jun Fukamachi - Yamato Synthesizer Fantasy
Space Battleship Yamato is a long-running popular science fiction anime franchise. It first aired in 1975, the latest film Space Battleship Yamato 2205 was released in Japanese theaters on February 4, 2022
Hiroshi Miyagawa composed all the music for Space Battleship Yamato until his death in 2006, his son now composes for Space Battleship Yamato
1982's Sythesizer Fantasy is a collection of Space Battleship Yamato compositions played by synthesiser virtuoso Jun Fukamachi. Between (I'm guessing) 1981 - 1984 Columbia released a series of Sythesizer Fantasy albums based on popular anime. Individual tracks aren't available on YT and I'm too lazy to upload... but the last track From Yamato With Love is probably my favourite
Collectable editions of anime music on vinyl is popular at the moment
