Best known for being the beatmaker for the duo Non-Prophets, Joey Beats is set to release his “uninterrupted collage” of remixed indie rock tracks. If the snippet for Coxcomb Red is any indication, be ready for some hard hitting drums over melancholy vocals by the likes of such artists as Belle & Sebastian, Andrew Bird and Neutral Milk Hotel among others. Hopefully, a tour will be involved as well because I really want to see how the combination of “Gavin Castleton (from Grüvis Malt) on Rhodes and keyboards, DJ Signify (Lex/Warp Records) on CDJ, [Joe Beats] on twin SP-303’s and twin portable Fisher Price turntables” rock the stage. As of right now, you can only purchase the CD from his new and revamped website so don’t sleep.
