Beastie Boys, Beck, Santigold Remix Norah Jones

Among other collaborators, Norah Jones managed to enlist musicians who worked with Beck for her fourth studio release, The Fall. But as she revealed recently, she had originally wanted the Record Club composer himself to oversee the album.

“Beck’s name came up a lot when we were trying to pick people for this record,” she told Entertainment Weekly. "At a certain point I almost thought, ‘Well, maybe I should just ask Beck to produce because I keep looking to work with the people he’s worked with.’ But I didn’t try.”

Fortunately for Jones, Beck will join the Beastie Boys and Santigold in remixing tracks from the new album. The Fall (original version) is out Nov. 17 on Blue Note Records.
