Various Artists - Summer Tour Remixes Volume 1

The concept is simple. Take the sounds from Sawako's Summer Tour field recordings, and make new material with them. That's all the artists were asked to do. The result is a collection that displays the range of artists and the range of approaches. Some use only the original source sounds. Some use them sparingly in the context of a new song. Some add new instrumentation to an otherwise field recording-heavy piece. The common thread is that we love them all. A big thank you to the artists who took the time to participate and bring us such excellent work. Enjoy.

Various Artists - Summer Tour Remixes Volume 2

After the first installment of this remix concept, we put out an open call for Volume 2. We received many skilled submissions, but the following eight versions were organized into the finished set. As with the first volume, there is a range of approaches and results, which arise from working with Sawako's Summer Tour sounds, and these were compiled for their individual strengths, which play off each other as parts of the whole. Thank you again to all who submitted, for exploring the possibilities in the original sounds, and for doing so much with them.
