Wonderful. The is the platonic ideal of a BoingBoing post and I love it very much.

I expected 39 minutes of air conditioner running at full. Disappointed.

TBH I was expecting something more musique concrète but that was a lovely load of cheese. 1980’s AF, as the young people say.

80s Japan produced some really nice ambient electronic albums. I’ve been listening to the Green Album on heavy rotation- it’s a favorite of the chickens. They really like this album, too.

This does not surprise me in the least. Also, considering how expensive aircons were in the '80s, I’d expect some “service” freebies.

Also, because Japan. <3
