biography

Logic System is a project by Hideki Matsutake and various employees. Matsutake started out as Isao Tomita's assistant in the 1970s and is best known as the sequential control programmer and synth module operator for YMO . He was not a member of YMO but worked on their early and middle period albums and traveled with his huge modular synthesizer. He has also done sequencing work for numerous technopop albums by other artists, particularly in the early 1980s. In December 2011 the group The Residance re-released the song Unit in a modern guise - reminiscent of Logic System.

He also writes for the “Switched on Synthesizer” column in Sound & Recording Magazine . Logic System performed in 1996 at a major concert event organized by Isao Tomita. Matsutake is also a guest performer on the Towa Tei albums released in the USA . There are also commercial MIDI files of the original YMO songs from 2000, which he was certainly involved in 20 years ago.

In the period from 1982 to 2003 there were still a few albums released in Japan. In Europe, three albums were released in 1981 and 1982 under the titles Logic , Venus and Orient Express .
