Exclusive: The Twilight Sad Get Remixed

The Twilight Sad are currently putting together a remix album, to follow on from the recent release of their new full-length ‘No One Can Ever Know’.

“We always try to release an EP with different versions of songs, in order to put out something for the fans after the initial album campaign has died down,” guitarist Andy MacFarlane tells DIY.

“We like to release something that carries on the theme or the artwork and bridges a gap between releases. This time we thought instead of us doing different versions it would be more interesting to get some other folk in to give their own take and perspective.”

The release is looking likely to drop during either April or May, and will feature an array of both bands and electronic producers that the group have never worked with before.

“I guess remixing is a kind of modern way of collaborating,’ MacFarlane goes on to tell us. ‘It’s become a lot easier to just send files back and forth - you are no longer restricted to being geographically close.

“I actually completely agree with what Thom Yorke said recently about electronic music being exciting and forward-thinking at the moment. It’ll be interesting to hear what the other people come up with.”

The Twilight Sad’s new album ‘No One Can Ever Know’ is out now via FatCat Records.
