The Hundred In The Hands Unveil New Single, ‘Keep It Low’

The track will be released alongside B-side ‘Mountains’ and remixes on 28th May.

28th May continues to be a busy time for new singles, the latest added to the increasingly long list being The Hundred In The Hands’ ‘Keep It Low’.

It’s the first single taken from the duo’s forthcoming album, ‘Red Night’, and will be available on 12’ from 28th May via Warp.

It’ll come backed with new B-side ‘Mountains’, in addition to a plethora of remixes courtesy of Andy Stott, patten and two from JD Twitch.

The tracklisting is:

1. Keep It Low (Edit)
2. Keep It Low (Andy Stott Remix)
3. Keep It Low (A JD Twitch Optimo Remix)
4. Mountains
5. Keep It Low (Patten Remix)
6. Keep It Low (A JD Twitch Optimo Dub)

Of the remixes, they explain:

‘We were listening to Andy Stott’s ‘Passed Me By’ and ‘We Stay Together’ EP’s a lot as we started the record. So many good ideas and textures, with low end in the extreme that kind of rattled our minds a bit. When it came to looking for people to remix, he was first on the list. The legendary Optimo duo have been such an influence on so many artists in recent years, and in maybe too many cases we end up liking their versions a bit more than the originals. We just had to ask. JD Twitch turned in two versions, each unique and equally epic. We couldn’t make up our minds so, we stuck them both on. We’d been hearing bits from Patten and got excited. It’s hallucinatory, uneasy and fractured. Pretty much everything we like. ‘Mountains’ was a track that was written totally in the flow of the album but still just couldn’t fit in, it just wouldn’t play nice with the other tracks and just became its own beast of a thing. This seemed like the best place to let it out.’

If all that information wasn’t enough, the track can be downloaded RIGHT NOW.
