Originally issued by Crammed in 1987, this is one of the most sought-after releases in our legendary Made To Measure series. Known for his numerous albums, soundtracks, and collaborations with the likes of Ryuichi Sakamoto, Van Dyke Parks, Pierre Barouh, Björk & Elvin Jones, composer & saxophonist Yasuaki Shimizu also released, during the 80s, several electronic music productions which are currently generating a lot of interest (a.o. his recently reissued Mariah project). ''Music For Commercials'' is a brilliant and inventive collection of short pieces, initially conceived for Japanese TV commercials (and bearing sweet titles such as “Seiko”, “Sharp”, “Honda” etc).
