Following the release of the official music video for “Is It True,” Tame Impala musician Kevin Parker has unveiled a new, dreamy remix of the track by British producer Four Tet.
The remix of the track that features on Tame Impala’s latest album The Slow Rush is an ambient and discordant reimagining, in contrast to the heavier bassline featured throughout the original.
It’s the latest in a string of releases for the Australian artist, who recently dropped a remixed version of The Slow Rush — titled The Slow Rush in an Imaginary Place for the quarantine era.
“I made something for all you isolators out there,” he tweeted. “Headphones required for full immersive effect. See you in there.”
Parker has also shared a remix of 070 Shake’s “Guilty Conscience,” and he recently collaborated with Mike Skinner on the Streets track, “Call My Phone Thinking I’m Doing Nothing Better.” He contributed production to the Weeknd’s latest album After Hours alongside Oneohtrix Point Never.
Parker has emerged as one of the most influential voices of the last decade, with his latest album serving as a deep reflection on the passage of time. “The Slow Rush is an extraordinarily detailed opus,” said Pitchfork. “I have to marvel that all this sound and history comes from Parker alone, picking every string and twisting every knob.”
“Is It True” is the sixth single from The Slow Rush, following “Borderline,” “It Might Be Time,” “Posthumous Forgiveness,” “Lost in Yesterday” and “Breathe Deeply.”
The album, released this past February, became Tame Impala’s second Number One in their native country of Australia, and their previous album Currents recently achieved RIAA-certified Platinum status in the U.S., with more than 2.5 million copies sold internationally.
Tame Impala will commence their rescheduled tour at Auckland’s Spark Arena on Saturday 5 December and continue through Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.
