Like, everything, from ringo to stevia to acid mt fuji to whatever. His ambient stuff is beautiful, the acid techno is emotional. just a once in a generation hero. gone too soon.

all his music is beautiful but this one is extra special to me. I particularly like Saboten and Ao-oni. the album makes me feel like I’m dissolving into nothing and becoming one with the universe

The late Susumu Yokota is one of the most brilliant and prolific producers, cranking out dozens of dance albums in the mid to late 90s and then moving into more ambient and psychedelic productions.
Start with 1998 but then don't miss him on his more downtempo Symbol, which samples Beethoven.
Or if you're lazy and like dancier stuff, here's a primer from Ciel:

Spotify’s year end wrap told me I’m in the top .01 percentile of Yokota listeners… There’s loads of texture to his music, so I fall into spells listening to his albums on repeat in studio. It’s impossible to narrow it down to a mere favorite (there’s really so much range…) but 1998 (1998) and Plantation (1995) were my most played this past year. That said, if you’re looking for dreamy wonderland, Sakura (1999) and Symbol (2004) are absolutely perfect.

These are my two fav apps. One is a plant identifier and it costs 20$ a year but I use it all the time. The other recognizes bird calls and it’s free cuz it’s run by Cornell and u help them with bird data.
