Stars Release Jensen Sportag Remix of 'No One Is Lost'; US Tour to Kick Off 3/3

Montreal's Stars just unveiled electronica artist Jensen Sportag's remix of "No One Is Lost", the title track from the band's latest release via The Line of Best Fit. Listen to it below!

In an attempt to scratch the seven-album itch, Stars uprooted themselves from their comfort zone and began work on No One Is Lost in London's Mile End rehearsal space. Inherited from the Handsome Furs, the band transformed the room into a fully functioning studio, all the while swiftly realizing they were constantly susceptible to the music from the neighborhood bar downstairs.

"The sub-bass throb coming from the club below our studio was undeniably and unavoidably influential," affirms drummer Pat McGee. "It motivated us to out-throb the throb."

So rather than fight the funk, Stars rolled alongside, with the incessant 4/4 thump emanating from below serving as the metronomic template that would form the basis of No One Is Lost. You can hear that influence percolate in real time on the album's monumental lead-off track "From the Night"-Stars' most epic opening salvo since Set Yourself on Fire's "Your Ex-Lover Is Dead"-with a near-subliminal pulse vibrating the floorboards beneath your feet before exploding into a kaleidoscopic, French-touched house jam.

And that's the thing about living for the night: you never know what the next one's going to bring you. Each sundown marks not the end of the day, but the beginning of a new adventure into the unknown-and No One Is Lost is the radiant flash of pink neon that lights the way. So, go dance.
