Chapelle XIV Music proudly presents ‘B01V’ by the enigmatic Sato, aka Satoshi Tomiie. The tracks on this EP are produced and curated with DJs in mind, offering different takes and alternative versions of the much sought-after “Blue, Black And Grey.”

A1. ‘B01V’ – The album “Blue, Black And Grey” was a live recording, where the original ‘B01’ served as the second track of continuous play. ‘B01V’ presents an alternative version of ‘B01,’ while maintaining the deepness and vibe, this cut focuses on a DJ mix.
A2. A57V, B1. A56V, and B2. A58V are all different studio takes of A57, A56, and A58 from the album. Although they share similar titles and elements with the ones on the album, they sound like almost different compositions as they were all recorded during Satoshi’s live performances in the studio.”

This 12? pressing serves as a bridge between the mindful journey of the initial 8-tracker double album and the corporeal reality of the dancefloor, making it an essential piece for both collectors and DJs alike.

The sleeve follows the visual identity of the original, displaying Julien Gachadoat’s computer art, which encapsulates the sound frequencies of the album into tangible shapes. Here, these visuals are now reflecting the reinterpreted audio content, keeping the continuity and synergy between both releases intact.

Remember, this is a strictly limited release, designed for those seeking an alternative take on Sato’s mindful journey. Don’t sleep on this one. More
