Mary Epworth
Mary Epworth releases a remix collection of her recent 6 Music-playlisted single ‘Black Doe’ via Hand Of Glory on 23rd April.
East Anglian songwriter (and sister of producer Paul Epworth) issues the collection ahead of the release of her debut album ‘Dream Life’ in June. The album was recorded over the past year in an art-deco apartment above a brothel in East Berlin.
Mary’s music inhabits an otherworldly place ('as mesmerising as it is unnerving' - The Guardian) and ‘Black Doe’s dream pop is cloaked in a wall of shivering distortion.
The remixes come from Young Edits, Small Pyramids, The Slow Waves & Jape. Young Edits is Luke Foskey. Luke is based in Brisbane and part of Australia's ever-expanding disco/house/edits scene that includes Cut Copy, Bag Raiders, Knightlife & Tornado Wallace.
His recent collaboration with hot remixer Danny Daze, "Million" won him the coveted "Essential New Tune" accolade. On his remix of "Black Doe" he strips the music down to the bare essentials and layers a spacey version of Mary's vocal over a steady thumping groove of bass hits and string licks.
