Notes
Japan only release including some previously released tracks but mostly new ones so it's not a compilation.
The Enhanced section was compatible with Mac OS7 and Win95 (Japanese, the English version required a couple of .dll files to work).
Now I can't play the information on IntelMac nor Win XP/7.
The enhanced section included:
-Information and samples from Tomita's previous CDs
-Listing of videos and laser discs featuring Tomita's music
-A 6 minute Tomita interview about the new album, CD-ROMs and a tour of his studio/equipment
-An interactive tour through the album music with images, and a MIDI file programmed by Tomita similar to the one used on the 'Toccata and Fugue' track.
 

Voor de liefhebbers/verzamelaars van space/synthesizer/ambient/chillout/(oldskool)electronic music

Veel plezier weer met dit zeldzame Tomita album.
Sorry !!! Helaas door veel drukte blijft het spotten er een beetje bij. Hopelijk lukt het straks weer wat beter.

Groet Nachtuil!!!
