The Cure's remix album, a slew of artists tackling songs from last year's Songs Of A Lost World, promises to be one of 2025's highlights. The recent Four Tet remix of Alone has now been joined by Orbital's version of Endsong, the album's final track and Robert Smith's meditation on staring into the abyss of loss, grief and memory, 'left alone with nothing at the end of every song'.
On Endsong (Orbital Remix) the Hartnoll brothers turn their hugely emotive techno up to eleven and take The Cure to new places. Skyscraping, beautiful, cosmic gloom.
A great work and yes, it seems that the triple album will be one this years hightlights.
