For our new album, Retouched, we reached out to our musical friends and family: producers, DJs, and bands, and asked them to choose a song from one of our three previous albums to remix, cover or rework in some way. The roster assembled is a diverse one, with remixers hailing from Tokyo, Austin, Okinawa, Pittsburgh, Kyoto, California, Canada and our hometown Seattle. 

Some remixers chose more of a cover song approach (check Funkscribe’s analog synth-heavy version of “The Hidden Valley”), whereas other remixers, such as Pittsburgh’s Smooth Tutors, took only a small sample of one of our songs (“Paisley Garden”) and built a whole new track around it. Other notable remixers include 9dw (whose debut album was released on Wax Poetics Records), Grammy-winning producer Art Hodge (Santana, Fight Club), and my brother Aja West (producer of funk supergroup The Mackrosoft). 

Also included on Retouched are twelve outtakes from our previous albums: short grooves and musical ideas that never became full songs.
