Tattoo (DJ Koze Remix)

A bold new twist on Everything Is Recorded’s “Porcupine Tattoo” – a standout track and the first single from this year’s acclaimed album "Temporary", now reimagined by none other than genre-defying sonic alchemist DJ Koze. Never one to follow convention, Koze turns the original (a collaboration with American musical icons Noah Cyrus and Bill Callahan) completely inside out. The result is a remix that’s both electrifying and gloriously unhinged. Invited by Richard Russell, the creative force behind Everything Is Recorded, Koze approached the track with trademark irreverence, merging his warped production sensibility with the raw energy of rave-era chaos. The remix nods to Russell and XL Recordings' embryonic musical roots. 'Richard asked me to approach this remix not with reverence – but with disrespect. It was liberating. Now it sounds a bit like a midlife crisis meets The Prodigy. You’ve been warned.' - DJ Koze

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Stonking bass-techno anthem which I imagine you'll be hearing quite a lot of if you frequent the larger, open-air electronic music gatherings. Monster stadium shudder from EIR and DJ Koze.

Everything Is Recorded, the collaborative music project centred around producer Richard Russell, returns with a brand new single, 'Porcupine Tattoo' - a stripped-back lament featuring two American musical icons - Noah Cyrus and Bill Callahan - who appear on record together for the very first time.

The collaboration came together while Russell was hosting sessions for a forthcoming Everything Is Recorded album, one set to build on previous acclaimed releases including 2018’s eponymous, Mercury Prize-nominated debut album. Reaching out to Callahan - an artist he’s long admired and whose song “I’m New Here” was covered by, and provided the title for, Gil Scott-Heron’s final, Russell-produced studio album - Russell asked the simple question “who would you like to write a song for?”. “Noah Cyrus” was Callahan’s reply. The final single features Callahan’s original demo vocal, pitched down and resting on layers of sub bass and complemented by Cyrus’ crystalline counterpoint vocal. It was recorded during a rainy week of sessions in a bungalow at Los Angeles’ Chateau Marmont, which Russell described as “comfortable but haunted”. The song continues a lineage of Russell productions – from 'I’m New Here' to Bobby Womack’s 'Deep River' and Damon Albarn’s 'History of a Cheating Heart' – that explore a sparser, more acoustic side of his sound.

The limited edition 7” vinyl single is released on XL Recordings in partnership with Drag City, Bill Callahan’s long term label home. The 7” exclusively features a second collaboration between Everything Is Recorded and Callahan in the form of 'Norm', a tribute to the Austin-based singer songwriter’s favourite comedian Norm MacDonald.
