Throbbing Gristle 'Mutant TG' Reissue Is Out Today

THROBBING GRISTLE
MUTANT TG REISSUE

OUT NOW ON NOVAMUTE / MUTE

Today Throbbing Gristle’s first and only official remix album, Mutant TG, is available digitally for the first time via NovaMute / Mute. 

Stream or purchase it here: https://mute.ffm.to/tg-mutanttg

First released in 2004, almost thirty years after Throbbing Gristle’s inception from the ashes of performance art troupe/media guerrilla cell Coum Transmissions, the band’s challenging, expressive and self-empowering manifestos and music continue to prove as relevant as they were in the mid ‘70s. 

Mutant TG highlights just how significant they were to some of the most notable figures in electronic dance music at the time. Among them, Carl CraigTwo Lone SwordsmenMotorRatcliffeHedonastik and Carter Tutti remix and reinterpret some of TG’s unique catalogue.

Having made the first Sabres of Paradise record as a cover/homage of Throbbing Gristle’s “United”, Andrew Weatherall was more than eager to pepper the original with some unique magic alongside his Two Lone Swordsmen recording partner Keith TenniswoodCarl Craig and Basement Jaxx’s Simon Ratcliffe may not at first glance seem obvious TG fans, but both have displayed their support over the years. Carl Craig told The Quietus“It was like we’d found some kind of underground cult we could be part of”, while Simon Ratcliffe cited TG’s Second Annual Report as an influence on Basement Jaxx’s recordings. Both Carl Craig and Ratcliffe have tackled “Hot On The Heels Of Love” with two different dancefloor bound versions.

Elsewhere on the album, Motor (Mr NĂ´ and Bryan Black) turn “Persuasion” into a pulsing, radioactive piece of sonic sound sculpture. Hedonastik transforms “What A Day” into a psychotic dub-fuelled mantra. Finally, Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti make mincemeat of “Hamburger Lady” and turn two tracks into one with “HotHeelsUnited”.

Throbbing Gristle, made up of Chris Carter, Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson (1955-2010), Cosey Fanni Tutti and Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (1950-2020), formed in 1975 and for the next six years fully delivered on punk’s failed promise to explore extreme culture as a way of sabotaging systems of control. They released crucial records such as The Second Annual Report Of Throbbing Gristle (1977), D.O.A The Third And Final Report Of Throbbing Gristle (1978), 20 Jazz Funk Greats (1979) and more. The band reformed in 2004, performing several concerts and several albums, including TG Now (2004), Mutant TG and Part Two: The Endless Not (2007) before disbanding in 2010. Their impact on music, culture and the arts has been immeasurable and is still felt today.

Mutant TG is available now to download and stream, with a limited quantity available on CD

Rina Sawayama releases 'Hold The Girl (Bonus Edition)'

RINA SAWAYAMA RELEASES HOLD THE GIRL (BONUS EDITION)



LISTEN TO "FLAVOUR OF THE MONTH" AND "IMAGINING" FEAT. AMAARAE OUT NOW

https://rinasawayama.ffm.to/holdthegirlbonus


What the Press Is Saying:


“A passionate quest to rewrite the rules you were raised with and find meaning within yourself.”

The Atlantic 


“A perfect balance between naturalistic sincerity and lavish melodrama” 

The New York Times


“One of the decade’s most captivating figures” 

V Magazine (Cover story)


"Taking risks is a recurring theme in the musician turned actor’s soaring career and her latest role is proof it’s paid off"

Allure Magazine (Cover story)


(December 8, 2023) - Following the one-year anniversary of her critically acclaimed album Hold The Girl, Rina Sawayama returns to release Hold The Girl (Bonus Edition). This latest edition includes an original single titled "Flavour of the Month" as well as a new rendition of "Imagining," featuring Ghanaian-American platinum artist Amaarae.


Over the past year, Rina has taken the world by storm with her acting debut in John Wick: Chapter 4 alongside Keanu Reeves, her masterfully re-designed world tour, and her in-depth interview with the BBC in which Rina revealed more of the context behind her sophomore album Hold The Girl.


In September, Rina shared the physical re-issue of Hold The Girl following her reimagined tour design for Hold The Girl: Reloaded, which pointed to Rina's intent to provide a more intimate understanding of her creative process and unique point of view during the creation of the album. After redesigning her entire show with completely new performance looks, she was able to articulate a greater narrative with a simpler set design, using set pieces in multiple ways and providing a playful and interactive experience. The North American leg of the tour included festival appearances at Governor's Ball, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Life is Beautiful, Portola Music Festival, and Austin City Limits.


Upon its release, John Wick: Chapter 4 broke box office records for the franchise hitting #1 at the domestic box office. Rina received high praise for her performance with The Wrap noting she, "gets some of the best choreography of the film, letting arrows fly as she launches herself from villain to villain in her Katniss Everdeen-meets-dominatrix best." Mashable added, "Rina Sawayama exudes ruthless amounts of cool," with The Hollywood Reporter noting that Rina, "will undoubtedly be seen in future editions." Upon the film's release, Rina also appeared on Good Morning America and sat down for a couch conversation with Jimmy Fallon. Rina's vocals are also featured in the end credits of the film on the track "Eye For An Eye."


Listen to Hold the Girl (Bonus Edition) above and stay tuned for more from Rina.
