(hennemusic) David Bowie's social media team are streaming a 2018 radio edit mix of "Beat Of Your Drum", as a preview to the October 12 release of the box set "Loving The Alien (1983-1988)."
The updated version of the song from 1987's "Never Let Me Down" has just been issued alongside the set's lead track, "Zeroes (2018)", as a limited-edition double A-side picture disc.
"David Torn's ambient guitars start the song that now lead into a much darker world than its shiny predecessor," says producer Mario McNulty. "David sang all the backing vocals on this which I have kept."
As part of the fourth box set in the music icon's reissue series, McNulty oversaw a new production of the 1987 album featuring new instrumentation by Bowie collaborators Reeves Gabrels and David Torn on guitars, drummer Sterling Campbell and bassist Tim Lefebvre.
