I have sweet memories being in a garden at a friends house in summer. I was 10 years old and when this album played I only wanted to do only one thing in my live. Making music like this

[@emio_17]

The first time I heard this song was when Sony's "first generation Walkman" was released. Every morning, take a crowded train to the world of "Mint Jams". Now that I'm working from home, it's one of my favorite routines to listen to to relax before I start work.

[@dikochi690311]

「TAKE ME」はYAMAHA GS1で演奏するべくつくられたような楽曲だ。本当にこのＦＭ音源の名機とマッチしている。またＧＳ１にしても、この曲ほど機材の持ち味を存分に活かした楽曲もない。アンサンブルエフェクトの重厚な揺らぎが非常に心地よい。カシオペアにはずっとＧＳ１を使い続けて欲しかった。あの時代はシンセサイザー業界がいけいけの時代で、新しい機材こそ素晴らしいと思われていたのだが、リリースから３０年以上経ち、あらためてＧＳ１が名機だったことが分かる。
