Cortney Tidwell - Don't Let The Stars Keep Us Tangled Up

Cortney Tidwell’s debut full length CD Don’t Let The Stars Keep Us Tangled Up came out of nowhere: its ravishing guitar pyrotechnics, brittle electronic excursions, intimate torch songs and a duet with Lambchop’s Kurt Wagner served as context for Tidwell’s spectacular vocals and ensured critics adored the record.

R&S Records have picked up on a lost gem of a record here in Ewan Pearson’s beautiful remix of the title track. Remix and production work for The Rapture, Depeche Mode, Chemical Brothers, Seelenluft, and Delphic have made him one of dance music’s most respected producers.

On the flip, one of Glasgow’s hottest new talents, Sei A, has delivered a thumping alternative to the ethereal Ewan Pearson mixes.

‘The title track alone would make a one-eyed hillbilly weep into his moonshine’ 4/5 Q

‘One play of "Don't Let..." will stop you in your tracks... The love affair starts here’ 4/5 Mixmag

‘A mesmerising synthesis of Mama Cass, Mary Margaret O'Hara and Bjork... A kaleidoscopic, dizzying record... An exhilarating debut from an irrefutably original new talent’ Mojo
