Legendary musician Hotei enlists Iggy Pop for explosive single "How The Cookie Crumbles" [Premiere]
Japanese-born, London-based composer Tomoyasu Hotei has teamed up with Iggy Pop for mind-melting rock cut "How The Cookie Crumbles".
Best known for his work with Quentin Tarantino on the theme for Kill Bill, "Battle Without Honor Of Humanity", Hotei's career spans over three decades of composing (including for Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas), producing, and writing his own material. He's sold million of records worldwide, played with The Rolling Stones and worked with the likes of Bowie, Blondie and Underworld. He's pretty legendary, then.
This new collaboration with Godfather Of Punk Iggy Pop is as intoxicating as anything we've heard from Hotei. It's a bombastic electro-rock cut, with riffs serpentining through buzzing waves of synth, pinball machine freneticism and Pop's grizzled howls; there's a kind of end of the world delirium in the noise that forces anxiety and fear from your brain, at least temporarily. It's a kind of 'screw it' track that'll get you lost in the moment.
