Unfortunately, I couldn't find much information on anything regarding musician Rei Sakuma except that she's not to be mistaken for the voice actress who was born in 1965. Unless that cover above for her first album "Pure Magic" (2022) is using a model, I think this Sakuma is a whole lot younger.
She does have a Twitter account and apparently she's a fan of Yellow Magic Orchestra. In fact, the song that I have by her today is "The Broken Drum" from "Pure Magic", and it sounds like something that YMO, and perhaps specifically the late Ryuichi Sakamoto（坂本龍一）, could have concocted back in the early 1980s. It does sound like analog synths are in play along with the good old-fashioned vocoder.
If anyone can provide any further information on Ms. Sakuma, that would be greatly appreciated.
