Over the past few decades, no other anime film director has been more influential than Hayao Miyazaki. Everything the visionary has accomplished up to this point still lives up to every ounce of its international acclaim. Last September the renown animator announced his retirement much more seriously than his previous five retirement attempts. As a homage to the extraordinary collection of works Miyazaki has been a part of, Boston’s Go Yama recently put together a tribute album featuring samples from the scores of some of Miyazaki’s most beloved films. Prior to the album’s completion though, Go Yama had his laptop stolen and the release was delayed in the process. Fortunately, much of the album was recovered from phones and email conversations since then.
