On February 21, Warp will issue Dross Glop 2, the second in a series of remix twelve-inches that use Battles' Gloss Drop as source material. To whet our appetites, Warp have leaked Shabazz Palaces' remix of "White Electric."

As one might expect, the Sub Pop rappers transform the source material into a weird, spacey hip-hop song. Some guitars remain in tact throughout, but otherwise this is basically an entirely new song.

Have a listen to the "White Electric" rework below.
