Neo Geo

by Ryuichi Sakamoto

我觉得不光是音乐家艺术家，包括我这些普通人在日常生活中都很难去克服一些与生俱来或者后天习得的思维惯性和定势。世界音乐 这个分类的起源是不政治正确的，但不可否认将音乐世界化这件事，还是很酷很实验的，能在上世纪八十年代制作出这样一张专辑，确实很前沿。我承认其中的很多采样或者元素都很东亚，这也确实是一个不仅仅包含欧洲的欧洲音乐作品。

I think that not only musicians and artists, but also ordinary people like us find it difficult to overcome some inherent or learned cognitive biases and fixed mindsets in our daily lives. The classification of "world music" is not politically correct, but it is undeniable that the globalization of music is quite cool and experimental. To produce such an album in the 1980s was indeed very avant-garde. I admit that many of the samples or elements are very East Asian, and this is indeed a European music work that does not only include Europe.
