Watch their latest video for ‘Vertigo’
Ahead of their Hoxton Bar and Kitchen show tomorrow (30th May), Australian electronic band PVT are streaming another new remix, this time by Werk Discs head/Actress collaborator Lukid.
Stream Lukid’s euphoric take on ‘Vertigo’ here, as premiered by The Quietus yesterday:
The track will available as part of PVT’s next single, ‘Vertigo’, available on mp3 and 12″ next Monday 3rd June through Felte. Alongside the original, there’ll be reworks of the track by Luke Abbott, Van Vizintin and – only on the vinyl – Hype Williams’ Snapback remix. Pre-order the 12″ here:
Additionally, there’s still time to enter the Beatport remix competition the band launched a week or so ago.

All follows on from PVT recently releasing their new video for ‘Homosapien’. The clip is a unique take on the stop-motion technique, featuring a cast of collaborators, inspiring musicians, friends and supporters. Having already conquered the three dimensional in previous video offering ‘Vertigo’, PVT this time take to a 3’20’’ display of world class instrument-switching; beautifully executed in high contrast grayscale.
Watch the video here:
Clemens Habicht (Friendly Fires, Bloc Party, Delphic) is back in the director’s chair and even makes a short appearance in the video… along with 40 or so other faces, including but not limited to: Jack Ladder, Sarah Blasko, Kirin J. Callinan and Mrs Pike (yes, Laurence and Richard’s mum), but don’t blink or you might miss it. Says Habicht of the clip: “This is our third performance video together, our trilogy. The first was Window which was about experiencing being them on stage, then there was Vertigo, and now Homosapien. It is one of those complicated pvt tracks that would be impossible for anyone but them to play and what makes them such a great performance band, seeing them actually make this music live on real instruments. So the idea is to make anyone else improbably able to play it.”
PVT’s ‘Homosapien’ is out now worldwide on Felte, Modulor in France and in Australia/New Zealand on Create Control. Buy ‘Homosapien’ at Felte’s website.

“it’s terrific… a coiling gothica sci-fi soundtrack that cocoons Richard Pike’s echo-soaked vocal amid pulsing, binary-code electronics. 8/10.” NME
“… exquisite woozy blend of drum-heavy indie rock and brooding synth pop.“ – SPIN
“… far more accomplished at integrating technology as an intrinsic element than many more successful outfits, doing so with intriguing, individual results…” – FACT
“‘Homosapien’ is evolution at its finest point, with sonic combinations that can stop you dead in your tracks to ponder the production…” The Line Of Best Fit
“Fascinatingly unpredictable and completely enjoyable.” – Pitchfork
“The sound of Vangelis clubbing with Talking Heads in 1982, and it sounds fresh… PVT are still rvting.” The Fly
