NEW RELEASE
In Da Club
David Byrne | September 17, 2014
These Here Lies Love tracks were made to be remixed. The versions of the songs in the show touch on various dance club genres, but are necessarily truncated in order to keep the narrative and energy moving along non-stop. So, when it became obvious that we’d need to establish a club-like atmosphere as folks entered the performing space (which feels and looks like a simulated dance club), we had the raw material ready and waiting.
Matt Stine and Justin Levine deconstructed the recorded music and scrambled it all kinds of ways to make an immersive audio world that merges seamlessly with the music of the show. Sometimes vocals from one song appear over the music of a completely different song, sometimes the orchestra from one song plays over the groove of another. There’s humor and exuberance, and to my ears it all works perfectly.
The album is being released on September 30th, but click HERE to pre-order the album so you can be one of the first to boogie.
All profits from sales of these remixes go to Gawad Kalinga, an organization based in the Philippines that aims to end poverty for 5 million families by 2024. Every purchase or download sends money to the Philippines.
