Hi friends!
It’s been quite a few months since our last message, so we’re pretty happy to reconnect., bring you some news and some free music too!
First, we were really happy to been asked to remix one of our favourite Canadian band: STARS. Their new single, From The Night, was a treat to work with and you can download our remix for free here: http://noisetrade.com/stars/no-one-is-lost-tour-ep
On this fourth Thursday of November, you might ask yourself: do Indians celebrate Thanksgiving? Well… Thanksgiving is a complicated holiday for Native people. In a way, each day is a day of thanksgiving to the Creator for the original people of Turtle Island. This doesn't mean that we don't enjoy turkey, pie and family as much as the next person, but at the same time the Thanksgiving myth largely shared in mainstream culture perpetuates a one sided view of a complicated history surrounding this holiday. Here’s an informed indigenous view on Thanksgiving: http://blog.nmai.si.edu/main/2013/11/do-indians-celebrate-thanksgiving.html
This doesn’t prevent us from “celebrating” in our own way by giving you a new song called Burn Your Village To The Ground. You got it here first and don’t hesitate to share widely!

While we’re talking about gifts, as the winter creeps on, we thought we should remind you we got some hoodies in our online store that can really be helpful and keep you warm. Get them at Atribecalledred.spinshop.com
That’s it for this newsletter. We’re getting back in the studio working on the next album!
Connect on Facebook – on Twitter -- share the first album with your friends
