Glass Animals, the Oxford-born, psych-pop quartet, invites you to explore a sonic landscape reimagined through the lenses of some of the most innovative producers and remixers of our time. "Remixes," released on February 17, 2015, under the independent label Wolf Tone, is a captivating journey through the band's debut album, "Zaba," reworked and reinterpreted by a diverse array of artists.
Spanning a concise 58 minutes, this collection of tracks offers a fresh perspective on Glass Animals' signature sound, blending their unique blend of electronic, hip-hop, and world music influences with the creative visions of their collaborators.

The album also features notable contributions from Roosevelt, Zodiac, Gabriel Garzón-Montano, Patten, Kwes., Boody, and Jackson And His Computer Band, among others. Each remixer brings their own distinct style and sensibilities to the table, resulting in a diverse and engaging listening experience that showcases the versatility and depth of Glass Animals' music.
"Remixes" is not just a collection of reworked tracks, but a testament to the power of collaboration and the endless possibilities of sonic exploration.
