Praising McCartney as “an extraordinary musician”, O’Brien told BBC Radio 6 Music’s Nemone this morning about working with producer Paul Epworth on the remix of ‘Slidin”.

“I really liked [Slidin’], and so I said to Paul Epworth, would you fancy getting stuck in? He was really up for it. It was great,” O’Brien said. “A moment of light in the darkness of the winter that’s just been. We had a lot of fun. Got into [McCartney’s] vocals and added some chaos, some guitar – my reference point was ‘Helter Skelter’, ramp up the intensity!”

You can hear O’Brien – who appears here under his solo moniker EOB – remix McCartney’s ‘Slidin” above.
