ABOUT THIS ITEM
"Need You Now" is the searing, triumphant opening stanza from Cut Copy’s third album, "Zonoscope", and the new single. An epic, throbbing technotronic love letter if there was one, "Need You Now" is a high point in the Cut Copy catalogue and one for the lovers. If "Zonoscope" is the city that Cut Copy built with their new record, a kind of utopian urban jungle, then "Need You Now" is the airstrip that runs right down Broadway.
"Need You Now" has been re-imagined in three dazzlingly different ways. Detroit techno legend Carl Craig has done his thing - that is, glistening, futuristic techno, teasing "Need You Now" out to a monolithic 13 minutes that we wish went for a lifetime. Meanwhile LCD / DFA man Gavin Russom ups the icy robo-funk and brings the back up choir to the fore, in a wonderful fashion.
