It was the only way you could >hear *really* original music. In Germany there was a nightly radio show. "WDR open house" played all kinds of "avant garde" music. AFAIR this was in the early 80s. I don't remember, but could imagine that they might have played Isao Tomita too. However, AFAIK he wasn't well known in Germany. I guess today he's well known by people who read mangas and watch animes, maybe more popular than by people interested in music, than in comics. I should ask a few people who are older than I'm. Perhaps I'm just too young. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
