PENDANT has announced a remix EP titled Caustic Pop Remixes, out November 17th. Today you can hear remixes from Baths for the single “Static Dream” and Water From Your Eyes for “Contract”, highlights from his stellar Saddle Creek debut, Harp. Other remixers include Jay Som, Airball (Joojoo Ashworth of Froth), No Joy, ill peach, and Wreck & Reference. A lush, surprising body of work from producer and songwriter Chris Adams, Harp connects 90s house and rave music with hip-hop, shoegaze, and pop, so it’s only fitting that Adams enlisted some of his favorite artists to give it the remix treatment. Speaking on Bath’s contributions, he says “I’ve been a Baths fan for well over a decade. I learned to program an MPD32 from watching dozens of videos of him performing live. Will has had a big impact on the way I make music, and this remix is no exception. I want to shake my ass and messy cry through this whole track.”
Will Wiesenfeld, aka Baths, adds: “PENDANT hits such a unique blend of sound in his music, I was drawn to it right when I first heard it. Harp has reference points I recognize but creates an entirely new cohesive whole. Had a thrill reworking one of my favorite tracks into a dirty, pushy dance number while holding onto all my favorite elements of the original.”
Today, The Faint are announcing reissues of two classic LPs: Blank-Wave Arcade (1999) and Wet From Birth (2004). Listen to the previously unreleased "Zealots (Unrealized)" here!
