With the release of his eagerly anticipated album ‘The Politics of Envy’ fast approaching (due March 26th), Mark Stewart has announced his first single ‘Autonomia’ a no-holds-barred  collision with long-time fans Primal Scream. It has been remixed by two heavyweight champions of the underground, Pinch and JD Twitch. Pinch loads up on dark and brooding, with a stripped and dubby Shackleton-esque interpretation, while Twitch opts for a warped and slo-mo, acid-licked stomp. Both offering, deliciously moody interpretations of the first single from the upcoming Mark Stewart album ‘The Politics of Envy’. ‘Autonomia’, a dense agit-protest superfunk monster with sirens and Bobby Gillespie’s frenetic ‘keeping the dream alive‘ call-and-response chant with Stewart who explains the story behind the song - “I’d written this song about a guy called Carlo Giuliani, who was killed at the G8 demonstrations in Genoa, this kind of autonomist bloke. At that point, it was kind of like a protest song ... afterwards I started getting on with Bobby, who was interested in politics and I asked Adrian [Sherwood] about doing it. It’s important that people hear about the story, it’s the message and the atmosphere as much as anything.’ Stewart’s scathing political barbs with the Pop Group and beyond, heavily informed Primal Scream’s ferociously politicised Xtmntr and other works. With the intensity of Stewart’s latest body of work back to red alert, this apocalyptic collaboration, made possible by the two camps’ lengthy associations with Adrian Sherwood, has been further honed into a heat-seeking radio edit.
