No Joy's noise is a knot to unravel. The pair, whose debut album Ghost Blonde arrived through Mexican Summer May 2, deal in the sort of obfuscatory squalls that make you wish your ears could use the same zoom lens that cameras have blessed eyes with, and the original version of "Indigo Child" is no different to that. But here, remixed by Stereolab, the air clears, the microscope closes in—who knew that No Joy x Stereolab = Blank Dogs + Nite Jewel?
