Young Marco today delivers a stellar remix of Marie Davidson & L'Œil Nu’s My Love. Layering the dreamy, ballad-esque original over a hypnotic beatless groove, it is the latest in a series of remixes to be drawn from their celebrated album Renegade Breakdown. It follows recent efforts by Jessy Lanza, Jlin and Morgan Geist—which saw widespread support from the likes of Pitchfork, DJ Mag, Jezebel, PopMatters, The Quietus, FADER, Resident Advisor, Magnetic Mag and many more—with a final remix from Tim Hecker still forthcoming.
My Love (Young Marco Remix) is out now on all music services.
Marie Davidson & L’Œil Nu’s album, Renegade Breakdown, is available on vinyl and on all music services.
The Montreal-based trio formed by Marie Davidson, Pierre Guerineau and Asaël R. Robitaille will be heading out on tour this summer. This includes various festival dates, several shows in the UK and France, as well as concerts at La Tulipe in Montreal on October 8th and the Axis Club in Toronto on October 15th. See below for a complete list of their tour dates and visit marie-davidson.com for more details.
Back in March, the band released their livestream Renegade Breakdown Live, shot and directed by renowned filmmaker Denis Côté, and described by NME as less a livestream gig, more a musical rebirth in their 4/5 review. Renegade Breakdown Live will be screened at the Cinémathèque québécoise on July 3 and 6, 2021.
Renegade Breakdown —released in September 2020 on Bonsound and Ninja Tune—is a bold reimagining of Marie Davidson’s sound, and was praised widely by the likes of The Guardian, Pitchfork and The New Yorker, with Bandcamp listing it as one of their “Best Albums of Summer” and additional support from FADER, Billboard, DAZED, Vulture, NME and many more. This followed Marie’s previous solo album, 2018’s acclaimed Working Class Woman—which was also accompanied by a series of curated remixes from Nina Kraviz, John Talabot, Afrodeutsche, Silent Servant and including a notable, Grammy-nominated Soulwax remix of Work It, which would go on to become a bonafide dance anthem that still receives heavy rotation both on and off the turntables to this day.
