Comments:
Japan Original Pressing.
1985 Eastworld era—sleek mid-80s fusion with pop hooks and bright, radio-ready sheen.
“Traumatic” (1985) marks Takanaka’s first original album after moving to Eastworld. Cut in Tokyo and New York, it blends sleek mid-80s fusion with pop-forward hooks: “Nagisa Moderato” lifts the A-side, “China” adds ear-catching chorus work, and the title track brings a cinematic edge with spoken narration. The production is bright, drums sit tight in the mid-tempo pocket, and the guitar sings on top—an easy entry point if you want the glossy, urban side of Takanaka. For beatmakers, there are clean count-ins, short bass-and-drum passages, and skit-friendly narration snippets you can chop without heavy bleed.

We visually inspect every record, and we clean each one before shipping (play-testing when needed). Even new or great-looking vinyl—especially some Japanese pressings—can have light background noise. We grade carefully by eye and ear, but it’s still a human call, so please check the notes before buying.
