Isao Tomita – Bird Chorus b/w Animation Fountain (08:07)
7-inch single released by RCA Japan, 1985

Rare single – not listed on Discogs’ 100+ Tomita release list– by Japanese mellow electronic composer Isao Tomita (b.1932). These tracks were commissioned for the sound environment inside the Suntory Pavilion during Expo’ 85 world fair in Tsukuba, Japan. While Animation Fountain is in the vein of 1984’s Dawn Chorus LP – that is, classical music on Moog and Casio synths, the A side, Bird Chorus (not on the LP), is a kind of oddity based on sampled and reconstituted bird songs only. Japanese brewery Suntory campaigned for the protection of birds since the mid 1970s and used to print pictures of birds on their beer cans (see here).

Stunning (uncredited) artwork as well.
