Deftones Tease ‘White Pony’ Remix Album

Deftones have posted a teaser for the White Pony remix album, Black Stallion.

The band shared a brief glitchy video featuring the iconic White Pony logo along with the letters WP x BS. Check it out below.

The band confirmed the album back in June. It features contributions from DJ Shadow, Trevor Jackson and Clams Casino. Chino Moreno told Vulture:

“I’ve been listening to a lot of remixers, DJs, and a lot of Boiler Room shit. I love live manipulating, especially vinyl. I just watched DJ Shadow’s Boiler Room set last night. He’s one of the artists that’s on the Black Stallion album. I like a lot of electronic music, a lot of experimental and shit, and there’s always the classics. I’ve been collecting vinyl for years. At my new house, I set up a record player in the media room, which has forced me and my family to listen to records and start them from the beginning and listen to the whole thing, through the experience. I’m trying to get my daughter, who’s 15, into that mindset of listening to records. Everybody right now is spoon-fed singles, but listening to records is an experience.

…Trevor Jackson did an awesome remix,” he continued. “I was so stoked on it. It’s almost hard to figure out what song it is. I love remixes like that, where it’s a whole new take. So him, DJ Shadow, Clams Casino, people whose music I liked and I like working with.”

Deftones released their new album, Ohms, last month.
