Released in 1999—one year after his groundbreaking debut *unrest*—it was reissued in 2005 as a special edition featuring two bonus tracks.\nRegarded as a masterpiece of the Japanese techno scene, this album has long been eagerly awaited in LP format. It also features the remix “on” by iano’brien and the remix “doubleflat” by max404, which garnered significant attention at the time, particularly among clubgoers. A quintessential work of the Harakami sound—playful and bouncy—that still feels fresh even today.\nJust like the reissue CD, it includes liner notes by Akihito Katayose (GREAT3)!!\n\n*opa*q* begins with “glimglim,” a track that is both fresh and surprisingly sophisticated, and ends with “schwschw,” brimming with the rush of a meticulously constructed beat.\nWith its thrilling blend of delicate melodies and harmonies, unpredictable rhythms, and unsettling soundscapes, this is the crowning achievement among the albums left behind by Ray Harakami. We are finally able to bring this work to vinyl. We hope you’ll enjoy listening to this newly remastered vinyl release.
