Frank and Tonys long history together has produced many seminal moments, and the release of the Ethos album this year on their own Scissor & Thread imprint marked yet another high point.The album saw the friends and long term collaborators produce a body of work that was both joyous, thoughtful and politically charged. Adding to that is this five track remix EP which enlists artists of a distinct pedigree to reimagine some of the tracks, and to stunning effect.

First up is “Cecile” featuring Eliana Glass, the pianist and singer who graces a pair of tracks on the album and this EP. Charles Webster is responsible for the flip – a typically moody and atmospheric vibe brings out new layers in the original. Eliana Glass also features on Timmy Regisfords remix of “Olympia”, which exhibits some of the New York legends greatest attributes – a hypnotic, uplifting masterclass ensues. Regisfords instrumental version of “Olympia” is also shared here.

Elsewhere C.K brings the heat with a rework of “By The End They Will”, creating a bumping, raw cut.The same track is flipped by Octo Octa, who takes the vibe fathoms deep and produces an idiosyncratic ravey version while honouring the spirit of the original. (via Bandcamp, Frank and Tony)
