Boxed In – “All Your Love Is Gone (Michael Rother Remix)” (Stereogum Premiere)
Oli Bayston’s UK project Boxed In plays a unique combination of krautrock, post-punk, and house. They’ll release their self-titled debut album next week, and today they’re sharing an exhilarating remix of one of the album’s best songs. “All Your Love Is Gone” is one of those motorik rave-ups that just keeps building intensity, and Michael Rother has given it a makeover that maintains the brisk urgency while significantly changing its sound. The original was dominated by a propulsive bass line, but Rother’s remix is all about that treble, shifting the focus to percolating keyboard sounds that trigger positive memories of LCD Soundsystem’s “All My Friends.” Hear it below.
Boxed In is out 1/19 on Nettwerk and is streaming here. The “All Your Love Is Gone” single, featuring this remix, is out 1/27.
