New Hot Chip remixes! YES! On September 7th Hot Chip will release a new EP, We Have Remixes on Astralwerks. The EP features remixed versions of “Hand Me Down Your Love” (Todd Edwards), “We Have Love” (Hot City), “Brothers” (Caribou) and “Take It In” (Osborne). Check out the tracklisting and track lengths below:
Tracklisting:
According to Hot Chip’s own Joe Goddard, “These are some of our favorite producers, people that we have been following for years and have been friends with for years as well in some cases,” so having these interpretations released as an official EP is a pretty big deal. This is going to be HOT. I for one am especially looking forward to hearing Todd Edwards‘ “space age garage retake” of “Hand Me Down Your Love” as well as Osborne‘s “lounge house version” of “Take It In.”
As if a new remix EP isn’t enough for Hot Chip fans to get excited about, the boys are set to to embark on a new North American tour this fall, supporting LCD Soundsystem on their tour.
