SOLEIL's first two albums ("My Name is SOLEIL" and "SOLEIL is Alright") are being reissued as a two-in-one album, and that remixed in stereo for the first time! SOLEIL having always recorded and released in mono only, this time they took an approach that mimics The Beatles' early stereo re-issues in the '60s, mixing their mono masters with techniques such as having an instrument or vocals entirely on either channel, or doing some crazy panning between left and right..!
Surely this album promises to be a time-traveling of an interesting experience, and also it's a great opportunity for recent fans to check out SOLEIL's first two (out of three) albums. For bonus track, latest Christmas single "Twinkle Heart" is included in its original mono version (as heard in Tokyo's Coolest Sound's Christmas radio show).
As a reminder, SOLEIL will be stopping its activities after a last show on December 22 at Shibuya Veats. Don't miss it! Also there will be a last in-store mini-live event on release day, Wednesday December 18, at Tower Records Shinjuku 7F from 19:00.
