acute.pop

Fresh after the release of their latest album Spirit in the Room, Brooklyn’s Activity have dropped a new Xiu Xiu’s remix of “Department of Blood” from it.

Xiu Xiu are widely known for the unique and experimental approach to music, and their remixes are no exception. Here they infuse the original (which is already quite a haunting track) with their signature nightmarish sound, making it a 7-minute horror marathon. A brilliant piece that takes you on a journey through the darkest corners of your mind.

[ep] Xiu Xiu – Ignore Grief (Remixes)

acute.pop

Having created one the most experimental and interesting records of 2023 so far in the form of Ignore Grief, Xiu Xiu gave their fans another treat earlier this week — a brilliant remixes collection of two tracks from the album.

It features A Place To Bury Strangers’ adaptation of “Brothel Creeper” and Rawzilk’s 14-minute rework of “Pahrump”. Fans of experimental music and avant-garde soundscapes are sure to find something to love in these boundary-pushing re-imaginations of what already are the jewels of harsh, abrasive and truly fascinating sound creations.
