Released in 1999, one year after his sensational debut Unrest, Opa*q is the second album of Rei Harakami, and described as a masterpiece of the Japanese techno scene.

The cover was designed by Masashi Iwasaki, with a photograph by Tomoko Iwata. The typeface is the Black weight of Helvetica Rounded (or maybe Bitstream’s version named Swiss 721 Rounded), used in all lowercase characters, with stretched proportions and a glow effect.
