Default Jun Fukamachi--NICOLE--1986

Promo-only release. Made for a fashion designer Mitsuhiro Matsuda's Nicole clothing brand and never officially available at the time. Distributed as a limited promotional item offered to attendees and participants of the 1986 fashion show for the Nicole brand's Spring and Summer collection.

Comes in printed inner dust sleeve and cardboard die-cut sleeve. Catalog numbers and "Not For Sale" printed on the back.

This was recently reissued on CD and Vinyl,I'm a big Jun Fukamachi fan. Most of his stuff is very collectable in the audiophile world.

there's a story about how Jun landed this gig to do the music for the fashion show...Apparently there was one of those swanky 80's snow parties at a audiophiles pad that happened to be into Jun Fukamachi's work and was playing it at the party, the designer got really into it and wanted to have it for his fashion show.

Anyway this album is ambient bliss, Jun fukamachi is something of the grandfather of all modern vaporwave. pure bliss in synths.

9/10
