Laibach’s forthcoming Spectre Digital Deluxe album is set to be unleashed just one week from today, and in anticipation of its imminent release, we are proud to present to you producer Alex Smoke‘s remix of “Koran.” Originally released in 2014 and now getting a deluxe treatment, this edition of Spectre will feature bonus tracks and an exclusive album of remixes explicitly titled SPECTREMIX, which will also be available separately.

The above featured remix is from Scottish DJ, producer, and Hum+Haw label co-founder Alex Smoke, who utilizes his peculiar breed of electronica to transform the once-uplifting track into a deconstructed vision of its former self, brilliantly stacking lyrical fragments upon one another to equivocally elaborate upon one of industrial’s most infamously ambiguous projects.

In addition to Smoke’s contribution, SPECTREMIX will feature mixes from label-mates Diamond Version (Olaf Bender and Carsten Nicolai), Sandwell District’s Function, Marcel Dettmann, longtime collaborator iTurk, Slovenian electro-pop band Torul, German DJ, producer, mastering engineer, and co-founder of the Common Sense People event series, Konstantin Sibold, and Slovenian producer, DJ and musician Gramatik.

In addition, the band will embark on a worldwide tour beginning next month in Germany, including extensive dates across the US and Canada:
