Save for a small-scale Dutch vinyl release in 1981, it is the first time the album's original Japanese edition is released outside of Japan. Hidari Ude No Yume was recorded at the legendary Alfa Studio 'A' in Tokyo during the Summer of 1981. Sakamoto decided to record an album rooted in pop, following the more experimental \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?\u0026amp;q=B-2%20Unit\u0026amp;filter=Brand\/Manufacturer\/Artist_fq:%22Ryuichi%20Sakamoto%22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eB-2 Unit\u003c\/a\u003e and his landmark electro debut \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?\u0026amp;q=Thousand%20Knives\u0026amp;filter=Brand\/Manufacturer\/Artist_fq:%22Ryuichi%20Sakamoto%22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eThousand Knives\u003c\/a\u003e.
