The Cure Announce 'Songs Of A Lost World' Remix Album With Royalties Going To Charity

This June, The Cure will release a remix companion album for last year’s Songs Of A Lost World.

Mixes Of A Lost World will be released on Friday, 13 June, via Fiction/Capitol Records, and the recording royalties will go to War Child UK.

The remix album, curated and compiled by The Cure singer Robert Smith (and announced on his 66th birthday), will consist of 24 tracks and feature collaborators such as Paul Oakenfold, Four Tet, Deftones vocalist Chino Moreno, 65daysofstatic, Orbital, Mogwai, and stacks more.

The reworked release will be available in multiple formats: deluxe three-LP, three-CD, and three-cassette releases featuring “artist and remixers” tracks, while the 2LP/2CD/cassette versions will only contain remixers’ tracks.

Check out the tracklist and the remixes from Oakenfold and Four Tet below. You can pre-order or pre-save the release here.

In a statement, Smith said of the forthcoming collection, “Just after Christmas, I was sent a couple of unsolicited remixes of Songs Of A Lost World tracks and I really loved them. The Cure has a colourful history with all kinds of dance music, and I was curious as to how the whole album would sound entirely reinterpreted by others.”

He continued, “This curiosity resulted in a fabulous trip through all eight songs by 24 wonderful artists and remixers and is way beyond anything I could have hoped for. Giving our recording royalties from the project to War Child helps make Mixes Of A Lost World an even more special release.”

Songs Of A Lost World, released in November 2024, marked The Cure’s first album in 16 years. A dark gothic beauty, it already stands among the most beloved records in the band’s storied discography.

In December, the band released Songs Of A Live World: Troxy London MMXXIV, with proceeds donated to War Child.

Songs Of A Lost World reached #5 on the ARIA Albums Chart and topped the charts in Austria, France, Germany, Poland, Scotland, Sweden, and other European countries. It also took the top spot in the UK, becoming their first album since 1992’s Wish to reach #1 in the UK.
