Now here’s one band we never thought we’d heard Tricky lend a breathy trip-hop treatment too: The Antlers, who recently ran into the producer/singer backstage at Lisbon’s Optimus Alive festival.
“[We were] staring at a confusing Portuguese coffee machine,” explains frontman Peter Silberman, “when Tricky appeared and showed us how to use it. After that, we got to talking and he asked if we’d be into him remixing a track. His records have been a big influence on us and we were thrilled.”
