Rival Schools Track Gets Beastie Boys Mix
Walter Schreifels has revealed a track from the forthcoming Rival Schools album is being mixed by Ad-Rock from the Beastie Boys.
According to our esteemed peers at Rock Sound, Walter Schreifels has revealed a track from the forthcoming Rival Schools album is being mixed by Ad-Rock from the Beastie Boys.
"Sam [Siegler, Rival Schools drummer] plays basketball with Adam and he said, ‘Hey, will you mix a song?' and Adam said yes. It could go on the album, it depends how good the mix is," said Schreifels.
"It might just be interesting because Ad-Rock did it, or it could be brilliant! I think he's a talent, but I haven't heard it. It's cool that he's doing it – he sent me an email saying he had an idea for it. It's called ‘69 Guns' and we're thinking of it as a single. I have no idea what a single is these days but it's got a good beat and, y'know, it could be played at a rock disco."
The as yet untitled release is due this summer, with Schreifels' first solo offering 'An Open Letter To The Scene' due via Big Scary Monsters on April 6th.
