Following their remix of "Black Lipstick" last month, German industrial/EBM pioneers Die Krupps have released another Powerman 5000 remix, this time of the sci-fi group's 1999 hit "When Worlds Collide." This mix varies wildly from the original album version, with the overall sound more saturated and busier. It's more intense and driving, and considering the pacing on the OG, that's no mean feat.
Listen for yourself below:
This comes from the re-issue of Powerman 5000's 2020 LP The Noble Rot, which is out today and features both the "Black Lipstick" and "When Worlds Collide" remixes, as well as a re-recording of the latter from the album sessions. Get your CD copy here via Bandcamp.
