Four Tet has remixed The Cure’s monumental comeback single ‘Alone’.
The respected English producer performed a special show in London over the weekend and, as is customary, included a few snippets of new work in his set.
Those with sharp ears may have picked up something particularly noteworthy, as Four Tet revealed a new remix of The Cure.
It appears that the producer—whose real name is Kieran Hebden—is a long-time admirer, and he was invited to reinterpret the band's single ‘Alone’.
Released last year, ‘Alone’ marked an impressive return; CLASH writer Sam Walker-Smart stated:
We’re pleased to proclaim ‘Alone’ as some of the finest material produced since the early nineties. While ‘Bloodflowers’ certainly has its merits, there’s an unmistakable drive and longing present in this ‘Songs Of A Lost World’ track that elevates it to a new level. This return is remarkable and heightens our anticipation for the entire project.
