Soft Moon

"Black" (Trentemøller remix)

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Jan 14, 2015

The Soft Moon unveiled new tune "Black" alongside the announcement of their Deeper LP last month, and have now decided to explore the single even, well, deeper by issuing a new remix of the single prepped by Danish electro figure Trentemøller.

The redo is more approachable than the ink-black industrial clank of the original, with Trentemøller bringing out pronounced pop melodies with the use of wavy synths and '80s New Wave inflections. The whispered vocals, meanwhile, still play out chilly and discomforting, and a six-string snarls its way into the early Nine Inch Nails-conjuring arrangement.

You'll find the remix down beneath a recently revealed North American tour schedule, while Captured Tracks will issue Deeper March 31.
