Gil Scott Heron's 'New York Is Killing Me' Remixed by Chris Cunningham


from MOMA.org

New York Is Killing Me
featuring Chris Cunningham

Cult filmmaker, musician, photographer, and producer Chris Cunningham is known for his highly acclaimed music videos for artists including Aphex Twin, Björk, Portishead, and many others. Since 2003 his focus has moved to music: he produced two tracks on The Horrors' Mercury Prize–nominated Primary Colours; won a Cannes Golden Lion for his reworking of Donna Summer's "I Feel Love" in his 2008 Gucci Flora commercial; and created audiovisual remixes for Gil Scott-Heron and Grace Jones. Recently, he has headlined festivals around the world with his new live show, and is presently working on his first audiovisual album.

Special thanks to XL Recordings, ACE HOTEL NEW YORK, and Sud de France Wines: Jaja de Jau and Domaine Lavail.
