Kat Von D shares unreleased alternative versions of singles ‘Enough’ and ‘Lost At Sea,’ featuring Dave Grohl on drums.
Recorded in London with producer Adam Noble and mixed by iconic Grammy award-winning producer and mixing engineer Alan Moulder, the Bat Cave mixes are the original versions of the singles included in Kat’s debut album ‘Love Made Me Do It,’ before she re-recorded them with her live band and finished what would become the final version of the record with Dan Haigh of British synthwave pioneers Gunship on mixing duties. Bringing his high-powered rock ‘n’ roll spirit to the songs, Dave Grohl injects the tracks with an urgent, alternative edge compared to the album’s more darkwave, synth-laced versions.
“I’m so excited to release the versions of these songs that were recorded so long ago with Adam Noble in London,” Kat says. “I think fans will get to hear a version of these tracks that explains the evolution of these songs into what they are now.” On having the opportunity to collaborate with Grohl, Kat says: “One of the things I admire about Dave Grohl as a drummer is how versatile he is, it was so cool to watch him play drums on songs that no one would ever expect to hear him play on.”
The mixes are the latest in a string of releases from Kat Von D during a musical hot streak, including last month’s release of her very personal take on ‘Fotos Y Recuerdos’ – the hit song from iconic Mexican-American recording artist Selena – the Deluxes Remix EP ‘Exorcisms,’ featuring reworks by Gunship, darkwave favorite Cold Cave, French evocative synth pop purveyors Scratch Massive, and Kraftwerk’s Henning Schmitz aka NEO.
