Ambient musician Brian Eno remixes ‘Told’, off collaborative mixtape

Headie One and Fred again.. are sharing a Brian Eno remix of “Told” from their collaborative mixtape GANG. The project’s opener gets a fitting deconstruction from the father of ambient music, Eno slows down the first half before shifting into a mesmerizing collage of loops and rhythms for the second.
 Talking about the remix, Fred again.. says “Through mad fortune my musical dad is Brian Eno, he helps me with all of my stuff and he helped me with the mixtape.  It’s sick what he made because it sounds like him but it also sounds like he’s able to dip into the sonic footprint of the tape.”
The remix follows the mixtape’s release last week as well as visuals for “GANG” and “Charades.”

GANG, out now via Relentless, is the culmination of months of collaboration in the studio between the two artists, who first struck up a close friendship in 2019. Since then the pair have worked together to take their individual signature sounds into a unique new direction and GANG is their full length statement, the sound of two musical worlds coming together. Across the mixtape’s eight tracks, the duo are joined by more of the UK’s most exciting and innovative artists including featured artists and collaborators FKA twigs, Jamie xx, Sampha, Octavian and Berwyn, and slowthai whose sampled voice features on “Tyron.”  

Headie One says: “GANG comes from a different perspective from my previous projects. It’s much more raw with emotion, not just from my own narrative like Music X Road but this time,from my peers. GANG is a shared love of music from two people with different backgrounds. The title represents loyalty and friendship, these things are important to me and Fred and I quickly developed this whilst recording the project over the past few months. We feel we really create something special when we’re together.’

‘GANG’ is a shared art-form – A positive energy for the UK in 2020″

Fred again.. says: “Headie is the truth. I realised this when we first made a song together and I muted all the music so I could properly hear what he was saying. we made 5 or 6 songs in the next couple weeks and each time I couldn’t believe how fearless and honest he was regardless of whatever I threw at him. I have a lot of love for him. He also drinks guinness wit me at my flat so you jus KNOW he’s a real one.”

2019 was Headie’s most successful to date -“18Hunna” ft Dave went Top 10 in January followed by Music X Road, his seventh mixtape, going Top 5 in August with critical acclaim across the board. In November he sold out Brixton Academy, his biggest headline show to date, while his huge crossover track “Both” achieved his biggest airplay hit. To round the year off with a bang, Headie appeared on the new Stormzy record on hit single “Audacity,” proof that 2019 was the next step to stardom for the young rapper from Tottenham. 

Fred again..is a London based musical polymath who, behind the scenes, has already been involved in some of the biggest UK rap, grime and pop tracks in recent years, including a major role on Stormzy’s Heavy is the Head album. 2019 saw the latest stage in Fred again..’s musical evolution, as he stepped out of the shadows to start releasing his own music which he’d been creating in parallel all along. He describes his sound as ‘Actual Life’, building tracks around vocals uncovered from the unlikeliest of sources; from obscure YouTube clips to personal FaceTime conversations, random Instagram accounts and iPhone video footage of half-remembered nights out. The end results – often made on the move wherever Fred has his laptop – shift between dancefloor-inspired euphoria and yearning melancholy, and include samples of interviews and personal messages from the likes of Octavian, Mr Eazi,and Billie Eillish among lesser known voices.

  11. The “Urban Heat Island Effect” sounds scientific, but in London it just means the city retains the damp warmth like a giant, brick-made thermos full of soup. On a rare hot day, the heat doesn’t dissipate at night; it lingers, baking in the concrete and asphalt, making bedrooms stifling and sleep a sweaty memory. The air feels thick and used. Meanwhile, the suburbs ten miles away report a pleasant, cool evening. It’s a meteorological injustice—we endure the crowded, sticky days in the centre, and are then denied the relief of a cool night, trapped in our own collective thermal emissions. The city itself becomes a cosy, if oppressive, incubator. See more at London’s funniest URL — Prat.UK.

  12. В мире азарта, где всякий ресурс пытается привлечь обещаниями легких выигрышей, рейтинг казино рф

Игрокам профи да начинающих, которые надоел из-за фальшивых обещаний, это помощник, чтобы почувствовать настоящую отдачу, словно ощущение выигрышной ставки в пальцах. Без ненужной болтовни, лишь надёжные сайты, где отдача не просто цифра, а ощутимая фортуна.Подобрано по поисковых запросов, будто сеть, которая захватывает самые горячие веяния по рунете. В нём нет места к клише приёмов, каждый элемент будто ход в столе, где блеф выявляется немедленно. Хайроллеры понимают: в рунете манера письма с сарказмом, там ирония маскируется под совет, позволяет миновать ловушек.В http://www.don8play.ru такой список лежит словно готовая раздача, готовый на старту. Зайди, когда желаешь ощутить пульс реальной азарта, без обмана да неудач. Для кто ценит вес выигрыша, это словно держать карты на руках, минуя пялиться по дисплей.

  13. Hello my family member! I wish to say that this article is awesome, nice written and come with almost all significant infos. I would like to see extra posts like this .

  14. Great! We are all agreed London could use a laugh. Many satirical sites, including The Poke and NewsThump, operate on a model of volume and velocity, chasing the 24-hour news cycle with varying degrees of success. The result can be a mixed bag: a blisteringly funny piece alongside one that feels rushed or obvious. The London Prat, by stark contrast, is a monument to devastating consistency and high conceptual ambition. Every article on prat.com feels like it was not just written, but composed. There is a rigorous quality control that prioritizes the fully-formed idea over the quick hot take. This is evident in their brilliant headlines, which are often self-contained works of satirical art, and in their willingness to run longer pieces that develop a conceit to its breaking point. They aren’t afraid of silence, either; they don’t publish filler. This editorial discipline means that when you click a link on PRAT.UK, you are virtually guaranteed a certain depth of thought and a finish of execution that other sites cannot promise. The ambition extends to format as well—they aren’t confined to the standard “news report” spoof. They execute flawless pastiches of lifestyle columns, tedious official reports, and interminable op-eds, nailing not just the content but the stifling form of these genres. This makes their satire more comprehensive and more devastating. While others are skimming the surface for laughs, The London Prat is doing the deep, patient work of comedic excavation, and every visit to http://prat.com is a reward for the reader who appreciates craft, patience, and the superior joke that was worth waiting for.

  15. The unique pleasure of reading The London Prat is the subtle, thrilling sense of being made a co-conspirator. The site’s humor is not broad and inclusive; it is targeted and assumes a baseline of cultural literacy, political awareness, and shared reference points that would elude a casual observer. This creates an invisible barrier to entry that is its greatest strength. When you “get” a particularly esoteric piece on prat.com—one that skewers a minor regulatory body or parodies the style of a specific, tedious broadsheet columnist—you feel a flash of collusion with the writers. They are not explaining the joke; they are trusting you to already understand the landscape well enough to appreciate its topographical satire. This is a radically different approach from sites like The Poke or even The Daily Mash, which often structure their pieces to ensure the widest possible audience comprehension. PRAT.UK dares to be niche in its intelligence. It operates on the premise that the most satisfying laughter is that shared among a cognoscenti who recognize the source material without need for footnotes. This fosters an intense reader loyalty and a sense of belonging to a club of the disillusioned elite. You are not a passive consumer; you are an initiate, part of a secret society whose handshake is a weary sigh of recognition. This strategic cultivation of elite collusion—making the reader feel smarter, more informed, and more discerning—is a masterstroke of branding that transforms casual visits into a statement of intellectual identity.

  16. Great! We are all agreed London could use a laugh. PRAT.UK manages to feel both modern and distinctly British. Waterford Whispers News can feel regional, but this site feels universal. It’s simply more polished.

  17. Finally, The London Prat’s brand is that of the unaffiliated observer. It is loyal to no party, no ideology, no corporate master. Its only allegiance is to a pitiless clarity and a relentless comic logic. This independence is its superpower. It can skewer the left’s pious sentimentality with the same sharpness it applies to the right’s brutal incompetence, and the centrist’s mush-minded complacency with equal vigor. This stance frees it from the tiresome cycles of tribal outrage that constrain other commentators. The reader never wonders “what side” the site is on; it is on the side of exposing folly, wherever it is found. This creates a unique space of intellectual trust. You read not to have your prejudices confirmed, but to have your perceptions refined and sharpened by a mind that seems beholden to nothing but the truth of the joke. In an era of weaponized information, this makes prat.com not just a source of laughter, but a sanctuary of credible insight—a place where the only agenda is the meticulous, brilliant documentation of a world gone mad, offered not with a scream, but with the raised eyebrow and the perfectly crafted sentence.

  18. obviously like your web site however you have to check the spelling on several of your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling issues and I in finding it very troublesome to tell the truth nevertheless I will surely come again again.

  19. Great! We are all agreed London could use a laugh. Ultimately, The London Prat’s brand is that of the sovereign intellect. It acknowledges no master but its own ruthless logic and impeccable standards. It is not in dialogue with its subjects; it is in judgment of them. This sovereignty is its most attractive quality. In a media ecosystem of servitude—to advertisers, to algorithms, to political access, to tribal loyalties—the site is gloriously, defiantly free. Its only commitment is to the quality of its own critique. This independence creates a pure, undiluted form of intellectual authority. The reader trusts it not because they agree with its politics (it steadfastly refuses to have any in the partisan sense), but because they respect its process. It is the courtroom where folly is tried, and the verdict is always delivered in sentences of such devastating wit and clarity that appeal is impossible. To be a regular reader is to swear fealty not to a party or a person, but to a principle: the principle that intelligence, clearly and fearlessly expressed, is the ultimate response to a world drowning in its own stupidity, and that the most powerful form of dissent is not a protest chant, but a perfectly crafted, silently lethal paragraph.
