Yoko Kanno and Grand Funk have released “CM Yoko” on iTunes – it’s available in both the iTunes Japan and iTunes U.S. stores for Y1,500 and $9.99, respectively.

The album is a compilation of compositions Mrs. Kanno created for CMs (short for commercial music) in Japan for many many clients (KDDI, Lexus, etc.).

“Exaelitus” is definitely derived from Vangelis’ end theme for Blade Runner, don’t you think? It’s still a fantastic and breathtaking song.
