CHVRCHES – GOOD GIRLS (JOHN CARPENTER REMIX)

CHVCHRES haben ein Händchen für mich ansprechende Kollaborationen. Nach der Zusammenarbeit mit Robert Smith für ihr neues Album ‚Screen Violence‘ konnten sie nun the Horror Master John Carpenter himself gewinnen.

‚Die Band hat mit dem legendären Filmkomponisten den klassischen Remix-Tausch gemacht. Carpenter hat sich dafür an der CHVCHRES Single ‚Good Girl‘ versucht und die Synth-Pop Stars remixen ‚Lost Themes III‘ Track ‚Turning the Bone‘.

Über Sacret Bones erscheint das Ganze auf 7″ in unterschiedlicher Optik. Als Nächstes dann bitte was mit Trent Reznor bitte ;)

Scottish synth pop sensations CHVRCHES have a history of commissioning remixes for each of their chart topping albums. Given the cinematic concept of their latest Screen Violence they wanted to get a composer involved who worked in that universe. Singer and percussionist Lauren Mayberry said that the master of horror John Carpenter was the top of their wish list elaborating that “His films and music have been so impactful on us over the years, and without the stories he created I am not sure that the concept of Screen Violence (and female narratives within the album) would exist in the way they do.” They decided to reach for the stars and contact Carpenter’s team and to their delight Carpenter was excited by the idea.
