Wild Beasts – “Mecca (SOHN Remix)”
British art-rockers Wild Beasts are about to release “Mecca,” a grand and majestic song from their grand and majestic new album Present Tense, as a single, and they’ve lined up remixes from Detroit techno pioneer Juan Atkins and slinky British producer SOHN, who released his debut album Tremors earlier this year. On his remix, SOHN has done very, very pretty things with the original track, using a sort of lush electronic minimalism to build on the track’s central harmonies. Give the remix a listen below.
Present Tense is out now on Domino, and the “Mecca” single is out 8/4.
