As if we needed more proof that Paul McCartney is the most genetically musical human being alive, the 70-year-old former Beatle is diving back into the world of electronic dance music, where he’s dabbled on and off in recent years. He’s set to appear on a new single from the masked Italian marvel Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo, whose one-man show goes by the name the Bloody Beetroots. In this exclusive clip for “Out of Sight” (check back Friday, or join this Facebook event for the full song, which is due out June 18th), McCartney wails signature-style over a thumping track that also features Youth, the producer (and Killing Joke co-founder) with whom he’s made occasional electronic records over the past two decades as the Fireman.
The roughly four-minute track appears to be a remake or a sequel to “Nothing Too Much Just Out of Sight” from the earlier album [Electric Arguments]. The new version is louder and has more of a wall-of-sound quality than the album track.
The Bloody Beetroots are led by Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo with an assist from Tommy Tea.
“Electric Arguments” was praised by (and surprised many) critics for its out-of-the-box attitude. “Out of Sight” definitely continues that idea. It’s sparkling and dynamic and a great addition. Hopefully, there’s much more to come from that corner.
