The delightful Fol Chen just released a second free remix EP entitled The Holograms to accompany their latest LP, Part II: The New December. Electronic acts Teen Daze, Primary 1, Hard Mix, and FUR offer up new interpretations of tunes extracted from the aforementioned LP. Both The Holograms and In Ruins, the first free remix EP, may be downloaded from Fol Chen's Bandcamp site.

The same email announcing the new EP also made mention of the group's touring schedule. From now until November, they will be criss-crossing the United States with rotating support from Baths, Light Pollution, Crocodiles, !!!, and the Apples in Stereo. Select dates will feature live Craigslist auditions for a singer, metal band Viscera covering Fol Chen tunes, and sampling the audience for use on their third album.
