Faux Real collaborate with Wet Leg on new version of 'Walking Away From My Demons'

LA-based Franco-American duo Faux Real have teamed up with Grammy and BRIT Award-winning indie-rockers Wet Leg to deliver a striking new take on their track 'Walking Away From My Demons'.

Wet Leg strip down the industrial, synth-heavy original, transforming it into a raw and hypnotic indie sleaze banger. With pulsating rhythms, a no-frills post-punk edge, and an undercurrent of chaotic cool, the remix feels like a lost gem from a sweat-soaked underground club night, embracing the energy of early 2000s electroclash while keeping Faux Real’s signature tongue-in-cheek swagger.

“After we opened for Wet Leg on their first US tour in the fall of ‘22, we became fast friends. So when the chance to collaborate came up, it just felt like a no-brainer,” Faux Real explain. “Rhian’s deadpan verses play perfectly against the frantic energy of Josh’s nightcore rework, giving the clubby beat this cool confidence—‘I walk around my neighborhood, you’re looking down, I’m looking good.’”
