Spoon – Lucifer On The Moon (Spoon vs On-U Sound)

‘Lucifer On The Moon’ is the anti-gravity companion to Spoon’s ‘Lucifer On The Sofa’. A top-to-bottom rework of the Austin band’s tenth album, it was created by On-U Sound founder and UK dub icon, Adrian Sherwood. ‘Lucifer On The Moon’ first took shape as a few heady remixes for the singles from ‘Lucifer On The Sofa’. Frontman Britt Daniel offered Sherwood two suggestions: “Avoid things that would not be possible on tape,” and “Add whatever you want to add, the less modern the better.” The collaboration shouldn’t come as a surprise: dub-inspired production is wound through Spoon’s classic tracks, from ‘Finer Feelings’ to ‘Inside Out’. Sherwood is aproven collaborator whose resume includes partnerships with seminal artists like The Fall, Jah Wobble, and Mark Stewart.
