Cultural Facts:

  1. Career Turning: Kitaro composed Silk Road for NHK’s landmark documentary series about the ancient trade route, and the music’s success brought him widespread recognition in Japan and eventually an international audience.

  2. Personal Struggle: Kitaro’s parents initially opposed his decision to pursue music and arranged a conventional job for him, but he refused to report for work and instead committed himself to building a musical career.

  3. Production Style: The score was created largely with early analog synthesizers including Minimoog and Korg instruments, blending electronic textures with melodies inspired by Asian landscapes, history, and spirituality.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
