In 2011, during the A State of Trance 500 world tour, Shogun introduced his track “Skyfire,” which became a massive hit in the trance world and maintained its popularity. Since then, Shogun, also known as Andrew Chen, has risen as a globally recognized DJ and producer, gracing major festivals like Tomorrowland, EDC, and Ultra Music Festival. He holds the distinction of being the first Asian American signed to Armada Music and boasts tracks on labels such as Blackhole Recordings and Sony Music. With remixes for trance legends and collaborations with Grammy-nominated and winning acts, his music consistently lands in the Beatport and iTunes Top 10 charts. Throughout the pandemic, he created over 25 tracks, including a remix of the Super Mario Bros theme to support COVID-19 frontline workers. Andrew also hosts a radio show called Neo Tokyo Radio, which has become the largest show in Asia, boasting over 15 million weekly listeners.
Shogun’s versatility shines through in his wide-ranging portfolio, spanning various genres beyond trance, from melodic techno to Dance/Electro Pop. 6 months ago Andrew launched Neo Tokyo Records, showcasing both dancefloor-driven beats and commercial vibes. After the success of “Skyfire,” creating another explosive hit seemed challenging. However, Andrew appears to have cracked a new winning formula with his audience, and it all began with “Shut Up Now [Dance With Me]”
Now we have Shogun’s fourth single released on his fresh imprint. “Walking around the streets in Shibuya Tokyo inspired me to produce “Afterglow”. The city lights and neons put me in the vibe,” Andrew shared. The beautiful vocals from tyler hooks blend harmoniously with the powerful bassline and emotional break, leading to a drop where the stutter vocal commands attention, marking this track as another potential hit in the making. Whether you’re driving, listening at home, or dancing at a festival, this tune is guaranteed to get you moving. Let’s witness how far “Afterglow” will captivate Shogun’s audience, as the hype surrounding it continues to grow. Stream it now on all major platforms: https://neotokyo.complete.me/afterglow
