** Music/RyuichiSakamoto was responsible for the iconic UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast startup sound. He's also done a lot of soundtrack work and has been a frequent collaborator with Music/DavidSylvian, ultimately becoming YMO's BreakupBreakout in the west as a result.

Per TRS, Feelies is now Trivia.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Feelies}}:
** The first runs of both ''Solid State Survivor'' and ''Service'' came in translucent yellow vinyl, obviously tying in with the band's name. The first pressing of ''After Service'' similarly was on translucent red vinyl.
** Early LP copies of ''BGM'' came with a foldout poster, a flyer for the book ''Omiyage'', and postcards featuring photos of the band. Similarly, LP copies of ''Technodon'' include a small pamphlet containing the album's liner notes, in place of including them on the inner sleeve. The 2019 SACD release of both albums replicates these extra packages in a shrunken down size.
** The initial Japanese CD release of ''Technodon'' made the lid of the jewel case into a polarized lens, with the messages in the liner notes being modified so that they could only be read when inserted directly under it. The European CD release and later reissues simply show the text unmodified.

** [[Music/YellowMagicOrchestraAlbum "Mad Pierrot"]] was taken out of the band's setlist following the band's earliest performances in 1978, due to the song's fast pace and dense arrangement making it difficult to consistently replicate.

Added DiffLines:

** The 2019 Collector's Vinyl Editions of the band's discography split each album across two 45 RPM 12" records, taking advantage of this configuration's improved sound quality compared to conventional 33 1/3 RPM [=LPs=].
