Stockholm electronic punk queen REIN makes her return with a new collaborative EP with French producer and DJ Djedjotronic. The record dubbed Transmutation EP will drop March 11th on Boysnoize Records. Comprised of two original songs, along with remixes courtesy of Unklevon and Pablo Bozzi, the EP follows REIN’s 2021 releases ‘DYSTOPIA’ and Reincarnated Dub Mixes Vol. 1.

To coincide with the announcement, REIN has also shared the title track to the forthcoming EP. ‘Transmutation’ is a punch-heavy shot of electro-punk with a dash of industrial that is an absolute rocker. It wouldn’t be hard to imagine this tune being played at midnight in a big club in Berlin or London. Below is a stream of ‘Transmutation’.

Regarding the EP, Djedjotronic said:

“We wanted the songs on the EP to be cold and mechanical. We were inspired by the movie “Metropolis” when REIN wrote the lyrics to ‘Transmutation’, where the woman turns into a machine and starts dancing. The song ‘Automation’ is inspired about going into battle. These two songs are the unwanted offspring between Trent Reznor and Gerald Donald. The evil twin’s of their worst nightmares.”
