In this episode of Home Records (Part 2), Slice and Emily continue their deep dive into the world of Haruomi Hosono—this time zooming out to explore his groundbreaking supergroup, Yellow Magic Orchestra. They trace the evolution from Hosono’s solo work into the bold, futuristic sound of YMO, unpacking how this collaboration helped redefine what pop music could be.

They explore the band’s pioneering use of synthesizers and playful, genre-bending production that made YMO feel so revolutionary—both in Japan and around the world. Along the way, they reflect on how discovering Hosono first shaped their experience of hearing YMO, and share personal stories about tracking down these records in Japan and connecting the dots between artist and supergroup.

Whether you’re following along from Part 1 or jumping in fresh, join them for a conversation that’s part music history, part discovery—and a deeper look at how one artist’s vision expanded into something even bigger.
