Mark E has been recognised the world over as a pioneer of house music for over a decade. This Spring sees the release of ‘Sky Horn’ on Public Release with exclusive commissioned artwork from famed artist and designer Sk8thing. Remixing for the first time ever is New York’s finest Happy Family (aka Eric Duncan of Rub-n-Tug/ Still Going and Justin Van Der Volgen), and Museum of Love (aka Pat Mahoney of LCD Soundsystem and Dennis McNany) who is also making their remix debut.
Mark E’s love for electronic music was a reaction to the frantic and exciting rave culture of yesteryear. A steady stream of quality releases on Spectral Sound, Running Back, Sonar Kollektiv and Golf Channel among others has cemented his status as one of the pioneers of a generation.
Museum of Love are LCD Soundsystem drummer Pat Mahoney and Run Roc Records head Dennis McNany who first combined forces for their prolific album on DFA Records. Their remix of ‘Midnight Equatic‘ delivers a heavy hit of percussion.
A legendary figure in the New York scene Eric Duncan of Rub & Tug is one half of Happy Family, alongside Brooklyn based Justin Van Der Volgen (My Rules, Golf Channel, DFA, Throne Of Blood and ESP Institute). Together they create an acid drenched remix of ‘Sky Horn‘, which Mark created inspired by his “fascination with all the reports from around the world about strange sounds coming from the sky”.
Visual artist Sk8thing was previously the creative force behind cult brands BAPE and Billionaire Boys Club. Today he is the ever-mysterious power behind Japanese brand Cav Empt and effectively puts his stamp on this special release from US label Public Release. Previous affiliates of the label include Jacques Renault, Mike Simonetti, Woolfy and Tim Sweeney with a strong focus on the highest quality music, unique and original artwork under no time restraints.
