Title track is out too (collaboration with Guy-Manuel from Daft Punk), and it's very sparse

It's an instant classic

This album is so great. Reminds me a lot of Sebastien Tellier's My God Is Blue. I'm suddenly hearing so many great albums that are totally reshaping my end of year list.

on first listen was fun guessing the collaborators. First track sounded like a dead ringer for Air circa Virgin Suicides. Mccartney track is a lot of fun

Takes a few tracks to get going, I think, but from "Deadly Valentine" onwards this is quality.

Jeff W, Wednesday, 22 November 2017 22:20 (seven years ago)

Soulwax remix of deadly valentine is so good

i know kore-eda (or something), Wednesday, 22 November 2017 22:37 (seven years ago)

^ wow that's a great remix

In a slipshod style (Ross), Wednesday, 22 November 2017 23:24 (seven years ago)

This put a big grin on my face when I first heard the song this morning: the piano in "Dead Valentine" from 0:45 to 0:50 is almost a direct quote from one of Serge's songs I think? Not sure which one though, "L'Homme á tête de chou", maybe?

Right. I'm regretting not putting it higher on my list. I'm playing it every day at the moment.

Has anyone seen her live on the current tour? How is she in concert?

ˈʌglɪɪst preɪ, Saturday, 30 June 2018 19:00 (seven years ago)

She's not coming here, but the reviews I read were mixed. Some claimed she was a non-presence and others liked it a lot. Would love to see her tho

niels, Sunday, 26 August 2018 10:22 (seven years ago)

damn a-trak remix is fire

davey, Sunday, 26 August 2018 13:23 (seven years ago)

yeah, something good came out of remixes in release radar after all

niels, Sunday, 26 August 2018 13:24 (seven years ago)

That's a tune. Not as good as the Soulwax remix of Deadly Valentine, but still a damn fine track

Did the cat ever return home?

Anyway, a new collaborative album's just come out

eight months pass...

I never heard about the cat. Finally ended up listening to this album after “Deadly Valentine” showed up in a playlist. Something I read said the reason she lives in NYC is she came here after the death her half-sister Kate Barry who at least one of the songs in obviously about.

Also just recently saw her play a small but important role in The Play Blue Eye.
