Ryuichi Sakamoto's single "G.T." is getting the vinyl treatment it deserves with a special 7-inch analog release set for May 27.
The reissue will feature the original track on the A-side, with Sakamoto's beloved "Parolibre" on the flip. This pairing brings together two significant pieces from the Yellow Magic Orchestra co-founder's extensive solo catalog.

The color vinyl format adds a collectible element to this reissue, perfect for both longtime admirers and newcomers discovering Sakamoto's influential body of work. Given his status as a pioneer in electronic music and his continued influence on contemporary artists, this release offers a chance to own a piece of Japanese music history in premium format.
This announcement comes as part of ongoing efforts to preserve and celebrate Sakamoto's musical legacy through carefully curated physical releases.
