CMU Approved
Approved: Trophy Wife – A Quiet Earth (James Yuill Remix)
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 19 January 2011
After releasing their acclaimed debut single, ‘Microlite’, in November last year, Oxford-based trio Trophy Wife have announced the follow-up, a double-A side single, ‘A Quiet Earth/White Horses’, which will be released by Moshi Moshi on 28 Feb. In the run-up to the single’s release, the band will be making a series of remixes available as free downloads, the first of which has been put together by indie-electro bod James Yuill.
Yuill takes what is an upbeat, danceable guitar-based romp, strips all the live instruments out and replaces it with some 8bit joy. The first of three remixes, this version is available to download now from the SoundCloud link below. It will be followed by reworkings from Foals and Esben And The Witch later this month. Speaking of Esben And The Witch, Trophy Wife will be supporting them on their UK tour, which kicks off on 29 Jan.
