Listen to Nuovo Testamento’s Italo Disco Remix of Scowl’s “Psychic Dance Routine”

As the year gracefully winds down, the music scene has shown that it has a few surprises in store for 2023. Scowl, already a beacon in the punk landscape, breathes new life into the sound of the title track from their EP, Psychic Dance Routine. Reinvigorating the song with a fresh style and audacious flair, they present an entirely new dance-driven experience. Led by the enigmatic Kat Moss and backed by the prodigious talents of Malachi Greene, Bailey Lupo, Cole Gilbert, and Mikey Bifolco, the band now showcases their reimagined single (via Flatspot Records), just as they have begun their fall North American tour.

In the vast sprawl of underground music, appearances can often be deceiving. While genres may seem worlds apart on the surface, many bands share intertwined roots and common inspirations. Scowl’s collaboration with synthpop luminaries Nuovo Testamento on the “Psychic Dance Routine” Remix serves as a poignant reminder of this shared heritage. Their union underscores the idea that beneath the layers of distinct sounds and styles, a common thread of passion and artistry binds artists across genres.

“Working with Nuovo Testamento on remixing Psychic Dance Routine started out as a dreamlike possibility for us,” says Moss. “We are huge fans of 80’s influenced dance music and NT is the top of our list of artists crushing the style.  I can’t wait for everyone to hear the track reimagined and hopefully dance along.”

“Some of us have deep roots in hardcore so we were excited for the chance to play with Psychic Dance Routine and make it disco,” says Nuovo Testamento. “We wanted to honour the song’s standout riff and Kat’s unique presence while making it a full-throttle club track, which was a lot of fun. We’re fans of Scowl and are thrilled to share this, we had a blast working with them.”
