A cornerstone of Japanese city pop, Hiroshi Sato's 1982 album Awakening blends his refined production with the sun-bleached feel of the American West Coast, where he had just spent time working. Featuring Canadian vocalist Wendy Matthews and early LinnDrum programming, it stays warm and soulful despite its machine heartbeat, with guitar from none other than Tatsuro Yamashita. This 40th anniversary double LP adds off-vocal takes, bonus tracks, and remixes, freshly cut and pressed on Clear Blue and Aqua Blue vinyl. Street date: November 13, 2026.
