The Crimea, whose track Lottery Winners On Acid came 2nd in the 2005 Festive 50, pre-empted the likes of Radiohead and The Charlatans by giving their Secrets Of The Witching Hour album away for free in March 2007.The band are now releasing a single from the album entitled Loop A Loop. But as they are pioneers when it comes to releasing music for free (eat your heart out Prince) they are going to do it in style with 16 mixes available. One of each mix will be exclusive to to one music blog including indie mp3.
The version available here is the Richard Autobahn Vocal Remix (he of the Cuban Boys fame) and mighty fine it is too.
