Name: Yellow Magic Orchestra

Alternative Titles:
イエロー・マジック・オーケストラ
Circus
Space Invaders

Year: 1987
Catalog Number: 32XA138
Platforms: Arcade
Published by: Alfa Records

Description: 

CD release of ALR-6012. Most likely based on the remixed US version rather than the original Japanese version.

Notes from Parent Album:
Only track 1 and 5 are remixes of music/sound effects from the arcade games Circus and Space Invaders respectively. The music and sound effects used from the games were not recorded from the arcade cabinets, but recreated on a synthesizer. The group did try to record music from the Circus game for track 1, but as they couldn't get a good transition to the next track, the idea was scrapped.
