Another day, another post on film music by a Japanese composer.
Last time out was the finale music to Pom Poko, today it's the work of Ryuichi Sakamoto and Forbidden Colour.
Composed for Merry Christmas , Mr Lawrence, Forbidden Colours is a sumptuous journey of new age flourishes, exoticism and synth pop sensibilities. It may have appeared on every chillout compilation going but that shouldn't diminish the wistful beauty of Sakamoto's composition.
