The latest remix from Tune-Yards’ …creep…Remixes comes today in the form of 'Heart Attack (SYLVAN_ESSO_REMIX_DOTFLAC).'  Previously released remixes were created by U.S. Girls and Suzi Analogue.  The final remix of the project will be created by ET.PATXKEISHH.

Listen to ‘Heart Attack (Sylvan_Esso_Remix_Dotflac)’ here.

Tune-Yards and U.S. Girls will embark on the first ever North American 4AD tour starting tomorrow (October 18) in Los Angeles at the Mayan Theater.  The 12-date run will conclude on November 2 at NYC's Knockdown Center and will also feature a DJ set by Lizzi Bougatsos of Gang Gang Dance.  A limited edition 7" will be available exclusively on tour for 4 American Dollars. 

In partnership with Revolutions Per Minute, Tune-Yards will be working to generate support for small-to-medium sized organisations who are educating and mobilizing voters in key states during this midterm election and beyond.  Tune-Yards and U.S. Girls will highlight organisations along their upcoming tour route or fans can visit Movement Voter Project to find one in their town. Garbus says, “I was particularly inspired by the work of Movement Voter Project and the organizations they are supporting because they work locally, have tangible and meaningful impact on important elections, and will be engaging whomever is in office after election day."

Tune-Yards’ fourth album I can feel you creep into my private life was released earlier this year to widespread praise and features the singles 'Heart Attack', 'Look At Your Hands' and 'ABC 123'.  A fully collaborative effort between Merrill Garbus and Nate Brenner who co-wrote and co-produced the record, Garbus’ lyrics explore her place in the world, ruminating on race, politics, intersectional feminism and the environment.  More recently, Tune-Yards released ‘Mango’, a collaboration with Lakeith Stanfield’s musical project Moors.  The duo connected with Stanfield through their work on the film Sorry to Bother You which they scored and stars Stanfield.  The band performed singles ‘ABC 123’ on Jimmy Kimmel and ‘Heart Attack’ on Conan in January.

In A Poem Unlimited is Remy’s sixth album as U.S. Girls and features the singles 'MAH', 'Velvet 4 Sale', 'Pearly Gates' and 'Rosebud'.  A dizzying buffet of live grooves, it was brought to life by an impressive body of talent including Toronto collective The Cosmic Range and long-time collaborators Max Turnbull and Louis Percival.  A disco Trojan horse of subverted messages and character studies of women grappling with power, In A Poem Unlimited is Remy’s most individually distilled protest to date.
