Through Hoops – taken from the album Mox Nox – is a song about the tensions inherent in friendships between people who are almost too alike. Upbeat and energetic, it features flute improvised by Diljeet Kaur Bhachu.

 

With support from Creative Scotland, the track was produced by Paul Savage at Chem 19 studios and mastered by Reuben Taylor. The cover lettering was cut from a risograph print made by Rhian Nicholas for the cover of Mox Nox.

Along with vocal and instrumental versions of the lead track, the digital single features four remixes. The remix project was prompted by a request from Knut Børre Lindbjør, founder of the band Featherfin (along with the Eardrums music blog and EardrumsPop label). The track has also been reimagined by Matt Ashton (The Leaf Library and Basic Design remixes) and Isobel McKenna (Blue Kanues, Even Sisters).
