Elusive production pair, Flight Facilities have announced they will be releasing their debut album, Down To Earth, with a wealth of offerings including the video for and a remix of new single, "Two Bodies". The remix itself, a meeting of minds between Flight Facilities, Emma Louise and HNNY, could well prove to eclipse the original, and indeed the album. Though the album sees some exciting turns from a disparate range of artists like Reggie Watts, Bishop Nehru, Owl Eyes and more, it's HNNY's remix which really leaps out.
HNNY's interpretation brings out a crackly, atmospheric bed more akin to classic black and white films than the Cut Copy or Metronomy records the duo herald as an influence. And that's not forgetting the silky tones of Emma Louise: her fragile delivery sits perfectly atop the cinematic backdrop HNNY creates. The duo's trademark melodic basslines are thrown out in favour of a subtle, tender soundscape, allowing Louise's vocals to take centre stage in the pained ballad. Flight Facilities are about to embark on a massive world tour to showcase the album and the smart money's on theirs being a live show to rival Justice or Daft Punk.
