Dross Glop 1

Battles proudly present the first in a series of highly anticipated remixes from their 2011 album Gloss Drop to be released on 12' vinyl with stunning re-works of the original album art. Remix duties were handed to some of this year's most in-demand producers - with the first 12'' containing iconinc German label Kompakt's Gui Boratto and The Field - who start it off with dance-floor filling takes on the album's driving Math-rock anthems. Boratto supplies his signature Brazilian Techno style to ''Wall Street'', a jittery, harmonic jam - smoothed into a minimal epic. Sweden's The Field re-work Battles track ''Sweetie & Shag'' into a pulsating fit of blips and rumbles--Pitchfork recently said of his work, ''If Willner doesn't hit at least some of your pleasure centers, well, forget your ears--your nerve endings might actually be dead.''
