Californian post-hardcore favs Thrice have newly launched a remix of their “Horizons/West” song “Undertow“. The track’s new take comes courtesy of Luo as the personal invitation of Thrice drummer Riley Breckenridge. Luo said of tackling the song:
“My remix of @thrice ‘s “Undertow” is out now! Taken from their most recent album Horizons/West.
Delighted to present this – I’ve been a fan of Thrice for over 2 decades and several of their albums were prominent soundtracks during my teen years & early 20s. Especially Vheissu and The Alchemy Index; these albums played a big part in me picking up a guitar and trying to write tracks myself in Logic.
When @rileybreck invited me to remix, I was stunned and kinda terrified but also over the moon. I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to work on this, so a huge thanks to Riley and team for hooking this up!
I’ve used pretty much every bit of gear and every production trick up my sleeve on this one. Hope it’s a fun listen!
Will likely be making some breakdown vids going into more detail on my YouTube channel (@joshtrinnaman) so keep an eye there if you’re curious to know more.”
Breckenridge added:
“I’ve been a fan of @luo_music (aka Josh Trinnaman) since our UK/EUR tour manager shared their unique, genre-fusing music with me about a decade ago — big grooves, big riffs, big EDM hooks, dynamics, atmosphere. Luo checks a lot of boxes for me, and has been in heavy rotation ever since. I’d come to find out several years later that Josh grew up listening to Thrice, and the admiration for each other’s work was mutual.
We’ve tried to do a remix or two for every record we’ve put out recently, and I thought it’d be fun to see what Luo could do with a Horizons/West track this time around. “Undertow” fit the bill perfectly, and Josh did a great job of staying true to the core of the original song, while pushing some boundaries, and taking some unexpected turns. Hope you all dig his take on “Undertow”.”
