This debut album from Brooklyn's Sontag Shogun, released in 2014, compiles three years' worth of composing and directed textural improvising, moulded into nine concise musical statements that straddle identifiable genre boundaries. The trio experiments with song form and traverses nostalgic emotional territories, primarily making use of a grand piano, field recordings, tape loops and digitally treated vocals. Songs feature repetitions of phrases, glitched-out melodies and a blend of rehearsal and studio takes.
