A24 4,359 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 BTW, I don't understand why this news about Sakamoto is reserved for the 'electronic music' thread only. There are people who don't read this thread but know him for The Last Emperor, The Sheltering Sky, Little Buddha, Silk, ...Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KK 3,307 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Damn. That is rough. Hoping he recovers soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,359 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 9 hours ago, KK said: Hoping he recovers soon. It doesn't seem Ryuichi thinks he will completely recover this time. Sakamoto: Quote "From now on, I will be living alongside cancer. But, I am hoping to make music for a little while longer.” I hope I'm interpreting it wrongly. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,576 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Terrible news. My Sakamoto interest got another boost after I watched the excellent CODA documentary a few years ago, where he's also open about the throat cancer at the time - which now seems to have spread to the bowels, for some reason.
