Japan's emergence as an economic and industrial power has stunned the postwar world, but the next Japanese wave may hit in the world of music. The scene there is alive: Nearly every child is thoroughly trained on electronic and acoustic keyboards. Music technicians are working full-time on revolutionary new synthesizer designs. Gifted young musicians are studying, mastering, and moving beyond every modern musical style. The talent pool is enormous, and it's growing. Get ready, America. This is Japan, 1985. Isao Tomita: It's been more than ten years since Tomita released Snowflakes Are Dancing, and still he stands at the pinnacle of electronic romanticism. But he hasn't been resting there; recently he returned to the arena of live performance, and began applying his synthesizer skills to an exploration of his Japanese roots. Tomita describes his historic concert at Ars Electronica, and reflects on the state of modern synthesis, in this exclusive interview. The Legacy Of Yellow Magic Orchestra: YMO nearly shattered the barriers separating Japanese musicians from Western audiences. Though they split up at the peak of their powers almost two years ago, they still inspire legions of followers through their records and through the ongoing innovations of their alumni. Ryuichi Sakamoto and Haruomi Hosono, the duo keyboard stars behind YMO, discuss their current projects, including Hosono's album of video game music and Sakamoto's recent collaboration with Thomas Dolby. Classical Pianist Minoru Nojima: A revealing examination of the strengths and weaknesses of contemporary Japanese piano performance. Jazz Veteran Masaru Imada: The birth and blossoming of Japan's jazz scene, as seen from the inside. Avant-Garde Pioneer Yosuke Yamashita: An iconoclastic jazz innovator ponders the tenuous ties between Japanese and Western music. Fiery Fusion Whiz Minoru Mukaiya: Casiopea's keyboard whiz tempers jazz and rock with a Japanese approach to melody. Session Ace Yasuhiko Fukuda: Life on the run as the top studio keyboard player in Tokyo. Meet The Manufacturers: Their technological achievements are familiar to keyboardists throughout the world, but their planning and production methods still seem a mystery to Western observers. In special interviews with Yamaha's crack design team and Roland's technician/ president, Keyboard goes to the top to discover how Ml DI, FM, and team-oriented R&D have affected the booming Japanese synthesizer industry.
