Founded in mid-\u201870s San Francisco, Chrome are one of the most groundbreaking and original bands America has ever produced. Their style, a musical pastiche of noise rock, over-processed guitars, electro-industrial loops, tribal rhythms, and searing synthesized synesthesia, would go on to influence both electronic artists as well as rock bands ranging from Nine Inch Nails to The Flaming Lips. Now, two of the dominating forces in today\u2019s underground post-punk\/darkwave music scene offer up their own unique twists on Chrome tracks.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First up is UK duo The KVB whose sonically adventurous leanings make them particularly well-suited to revamp Chrome\u2019s music. The track they remix, \u201cNew Age,\u201d is the fan-favorite lead-off track from one of Chrome\u2019s most accessible albums, 1980\u2019s\u00a0Red Exposure<\/em>. Nicholas Wood & Kat Daly\u2019s production emphasizes the bass guitar and strips away the vocal effects to give the track a new sense of both danger and danceability. Meanwhile, Detroit\u2019s Ritual Howls remix a rare non-album track \u201cIn A Dream\u201d that originally appeared on Chrome\u2019s 1983 compilation album\u00a0No Humans Allowed<\/em>. Ritual Howls reside comfortably in the space between dark rock and synth wave, not unlike Chrome themselves, so it\u2019s no surprise that they\u2019re take on \u201cIn A Dream\u201d amps up the pounding drums and Helios Creed\u2019s razor-sharp guitar riff. Both tracks are available on all digital platforms everywhere courtesy of Cleopatra Records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
