'Tale Remixed' is the remixed album for the debut album released in 2014 from Sontag Shogun, an combination of analog and digital electronics + piano project based in Brooklyn, New York, comprised of former members from [the] slowest runner [in all the world]. In spite of it only being two years since Sontag Shogun debuted, they have already toured extensively throughout the US, Canada, EU, China, and Japan, where they drew the attention of many listeners, and also performed with artists such as Hauschka, Mark McGuire, Julia Kent, and Anoice.
This time, Indian Wells, Jake Chudnow, Anoice, Perdurabo, Takahiro Kido, Hakobune, Radicalfashion, Schneider TM, and more artists, who all are active at the forefront of the neo-classical/electronica/ambient music scene, added electronica elements to Sontag Shogun's quiet world outlined on the debut album 'Tale' crafted by mixing lush piano melodies, with an electric sound and vocals that engage the heart and mind of all listeners. This remixed album includes awesome tracks on a level with those of Aphex Twin's '26 Mixes for Cash' album!
Additionally, Giuseppe Ielasi and KASHIWA Daisuke took charge of the mastering works, and Takahiro Kido from Anoice was responsible for the post production, meaning an assurance of accurate sound quality.
Sontag Shogun are a New York based neo-classical ambient music trio who express an individualistic beauty featuring a combination of lovely piano melodies, ambient, analog musical electronics such as a tape machines, modular synthesizers, sound effects made from everyday items such as rice, chopstick and spoons, and edited vocals like clean air. In 2014, they debuted by releasing their first album 'Tale', a masterpiece featuring beautiful songs and its overwhelmed sound quality. They have shared the stage with notable artists such as Hauschka who is a popular modern-classical pianist, Julia Kent, the cellist of Antony & the Johnsons who is also know for her collaborations with Björk, and also played concerts at Frameworks Festival in Germany and The Museum Of Modern Art in New York. After many concerts in North America, Western Europe, Northern Europe, and East Asia, they created the surpassing beautiful second studio album 'Patterns For Resonant Space' like ones of Sigur Rós and Jóhann Jóhannsson in 2017. The fantastic sound has also been praised by Pitchfork Media. In 2019, they released their third album 'It Billows Up' made from field recordings, analog oscillator, foley sounds, and a piano then, in 2020, their fourth album 'The Floating World & The Sorrowful World' featuring improvisation performance with a Belgium-based guitarist and tape manipulator, Stijn Hüwels. In 2022, they released their first collaboration album, 'Valo Siroutuu' by Sontag Shogun and a Finnish female vocalist, Lau Nau, aka Laura Naukkarinen, a singer-songwriter who works using both acoustic and electronic instruments, from traditional instruments and singing voice to analogue synthesisers and field recordings.
