David Bowie premiered a breathtaking minimalist version of his classic 1977 song "Sound & Vision." The song was re-worked from the original stems, leaving only Bowie's voice backed by pianist Roy Young, and backing vocals by Mary Hopkin. The new version was remixed by Sonjay Prabhakar for an upcoming advertising campaign for Sony. Stream "Sound & Vision" 2013 below and purchase now as a digital download from iTunes and Amazon.
Meanwhile, James Murphy from LCD Soundsystem remixed David Bowie's song "Love Is Lost," and the 10 minute remix will be one of the extra tracks on the 3 disc re-issue of Bowie's album The Next Day (the reissue is titled The Next Day Extra) on November 4th. Today BBC Radio 6 interviewed Murphy and premiered the "Love Is Lost" remix. Check out the interview and remix here (fyi, the interview lasts 4 minutes, then the song follows). Via Gigwise.
