The veteran Japanese artist takes Daniel Lopatin’s “hypnotic and complex melody of the original song into an otherworldly realm, a stark and graceful retelling,” as a press release puts it. Take a listen to the update below.

Out November 23rd, Love in the Time of Lexapro also features a take on Age Of cut “Babylon” with additional contributions from (Sandy) Alex G.
