Tomita's music is fantastic. I love his version of Holst's The Planets. I haven't listened to his music in years though, so I just now found out he passed away last year!
Everything up to The Ravel Album is great.
Tomita probably ranks as the only true Moog virtuoso sound designer. Literally nobody else used the instrument quite so creatively, or produced such an incredible range of distinctive sounds with it.
This sounds like a recipe for cheese, but it's anything but. Everyone who owns, uses, or is even slightly interested in modular synthesizers should hear his albums.
