In light of your nice little chat with Tony on the record room (it was great to hear the two of you again) I dug this osamu shoji obscurity out.

What's interesting is the first song pays homage to the Halloween theme but there is no mention of the film title or composer unlike all the other titles on the LP. The track in question is called Barnard Loop, admittedly the track strays from the Halloween theme once it gets going but the nod to the Halloween theme is definitely there. Barnard's loop, Google has told me, is a nebula in the constellation of Orion. The track is credited to osamu, and the track has some dedicated blurb on the LP insert. The translation of which seems even more odd, even taking into consideration the obvious limits of Google translate:

BARNARD LOOP The synthesizer that is the center of this album is Fairlight I. It boasts the high sound quality of the street, but the company's efforts are remarkable, and the other day, a person called a technical ambassador came all the way to visit the studio from Sydney, Australia, and according to the story. I was deeply moved by the fact that "we will divide users around the world, collect their opinions, and reflect them in future technological innovations." In other words, I was particularly impressed because I have always believed that Fairlight and I are a "fate community". Although the introduction has become very long, this wonderful positive instrument and my endless dream are curved greatly in the left half of that Andromeda Connection and spread outward at a speed of 10 km / s. This is a translation that made me think of the star group, Barnard Loop. It's an album that bites the gratitude of today, which feels like a world away from the era of hardship synths.

Agreed, @tim, I really like it. Hints of carpenter and It Follows (I've prob said this before), but it doesn't sound too much looks either. We'll worth picking up, as it seems to be going pretty cheap.

I wonder how all the releases of this compare (he said.......... 😬)

Sadly I can't attempt the task as I only have the AMS. They have some diff in the tracklists across the various versions though I believe.

If you watch it, the Japanese dub with subs is the way to go. There is at least one dub, in English which changes the story a lot.
I have a copy I can share, of the Japanese sub.

It's had a mixed reception as it's very realistic for an anime, and has a big military focus. Basically how a nuclear war could break out in the 80s. Some great characters in it. It utilises some fancy animation technique to achieve its realistic look, is it rotoscoping?

Also a brilliant score from seiji Yokoyama, who also did the tomb of Dracula anime ost.

Check the clip.
