Tycho: Awake – Remixes (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP

Remixes of the San Francisco based producer’s fourth album. Awake marked a turning point in Tycho’s career, transitioning from solo artist to performing with a full band. It was a groundbreaking work that seamlessly mixed strains of ambient, electronica, post-rock into its IDM stew. This remix LP sees artists like Com Truise, RJD2, Vampire Weekend’s Baio and Bibio take on the album’s eight tracks. They range from the pretty ambience of Christopher Willits’ remix of “Montana,” to Few Nolder’s techy remix of the same cut. Nine tracks in all. Released by Ghostly International on limited edition blue vinyl with a download code.
