Listen to Hot Chip’s remix of Enola Gay HERE It’s already a perfect song, so this is just a tribute and an homage, made all the more meaningful with the occurrence this year of the 75th anniversary of the atomic bombs on Japan. Of the remix, Al comments “Getting your hands on the raw material of ‘Enola Gay’ feels like stealing into hallowed halls. The single has also received a sublime hypnotic remix from Hot Chip ’s Al Doyle, out today. The band have also unveiled a special new and enhanced HD version of the original ‘Enola Gay’ video – watch here. The digital version is available to purchase toda y, and pre-orders for the 12” coloured vinyl are available now HERE. The second is a slowed down, chilled out rework that is far removed from the original, but remains undeniably glorious. One extended mix uses the original master multi-track, that sounds like the 12″ version that never was, but should have been released in 1980. The release features two brand new mixes of the track by Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys. Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark (OMD) have today announced a limited edition 12” coloured vinyl release of the band’s legendary anti-war hit single ‘Enola Gay’, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of its original release, and 75 years since the World War II atomic bombing of Hiroshima by the Enola Gay aircraft.
