Metamatic Forums News and Announcements John Foxx news John Foxx and the Maths remix ADULT

Double act squared.

Synth visionary John Foxx and his regular collaborator, electronic producer Benge, have come together again to deliver a taut reworking of the new single from Foxx-inspired Michigan electropunk duo ADULT.

The single 'Tonight We Fall' is out on 27th August, but for those who like-hearing-things-early sort of thing, you can stream the audio here:

Taken from The Way Things Fall, ADULT.’s first album in six years, the original version of ‘Tonight, We Fall’ is a comparatively buoyant offering from the poker-faced pair, laden with squelchy electronics and chirpy melodies. Foxx and Benge’s remix, meanwhile, whacks the creepiness dial up to nine to craft a menacing techno-tinged assault.

ADULT.’s Adam Lee Miller described the duo’s latest album as “the closest we’ve come to writing traditional ‘pop’ songs, even though we know they are totally mutants”,

It's a fine remix.Like this a lot.

Excellent.

I'd never heard of ADULT before but I've got Le CAR's album, which yes owes a lot to Metamatic/Foxx.

A lot of interesting stuff on that soundcloud page.
