While French duo Cassius haven't released a full-length record in around a decade, Philippe Zdar and Boom Bass returned to "Action" today with a new single featuring Beastie Boy Mike D and Cat Power's Chan Marshall.

Premiered on Annie Mac's BBC Radio 1 show, Mike D told Pitchfork the collaboration came about through Zdar showing him and Marshall tracks in New York City.

"The song came with this world liberation theme," Mike D revealed. "Then I came with a modern-day relationship theme, and somehow the two went together. It's kind of like toast and Vegemite go together only in Australia."
