Southern California post-hardcore band MOVEMENTS — Patrick Miranda, vocals; Ira George, guitar; Spencer York, drums; and Austin Cressey, bass — are pleased to release the deluxe edition of their 2023-released album RUCKUS!
But this is no ordinary deluxe edition. It's packed with extras that fans will be eager to get their hands on. Movements enhanced RUCKUS! by remixing the entire album with six different remixers/producers for RUCKUS! (The Remixes).
Listen to the Taylor Morgan remix of "Tightrope"
Movements enlisted Taylor Morgan to craft a deliciously hushed remix of "Tightrope" for RUCKUS! (The Remixes). Morgan's added beats and synths add a softly swelling urgency to the song, which was already an uncharacteristic ballad for the band. It's a downright pretty musical makeover that will give you all the feels and might even have you doing a little dance in your living room.
On December 13, the vinyl version of RUCKUS! (Deluxe Edition) will feature the full original album, along with the new song "Afraid to Die" and the 11 remixes. It will include "Lead Pipe (Live at Studio 4)" on Flexi.
It's been a whirlwind few years for Movements as evidenced by the fact that band's 2020 album No Good Left to Give debuted at #3 on the Alternative chart and their streams have doubled since then with 300 million total streams in the U.S. alone. However, despite their success, the Southern Californian act have constantly reinvented themselves since forming in 2015 and the band's third full-length RUCKUS! sees the post-hardcore quartet taking their sound to expansive and sometimes unexpected places. Produced by longtime collaborator Will Yip (Circa Survive, Code Orange), the album fuses post-hardcore and punk influences with a healthy dose of pop songcraft to create an album that defies scene conventions in favor of something wholly unique. In order to accomplish this, the band made three extended trips to Yip's Studio 4 in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, to write and record the collection of songs that would end up as RUCKUS! "I truly don't believe that it could have been a more streamlined process and I don't think we've ever written music that's as good as what we put together for this record," Miranda explains. RUCKUS! sees the band integrating decidedly different influences such as Gorillaz and Strokes into their sound to challenge people's preconceptions.
