Ten years on from the release of seminal singles like "Lemonade" and "Vyzee", the late producer SOPHIE has become known for her futuristic approach to electronics and synthetic pop imagery. To celebrate her first project, Product, a new deluxe edition is on the way, via Numbers, including two previously unreleased songs created during the same time as the breakthrough record.
The reissue was created in close collaboration with SOPHIE's friends and family and will be released on June 18.
Listen to one of the new songs, "Ooh," here:
With the original eight tracks from Product's initial release, the expanded edition will also feature unreleased songs "Ooh" and "Get Higher", and the Product-era song "Unisil", which was released in 2021.
"Ooh", previously called "Make Respect", was created in 2011 and featured in SOPHIE's 2011 performance at Barcelona's Sónar Festival. The now-completed version features vocals from X Factor singer Jaide Green, who SOPHIE invited to a recording session after seeing her perform alongside Olly Alexander in 2009.
"Get Higher" features vocalists Cassie Davis and Sean Mullins and was released as an exclusive bonus track on the Japanese CD edition of Product. "She had this unapologetic ferocity for being true to who she was, that was infectious," Mullins said about the track. "I remember dancing around in the studio, vibing to the energy of creation in a way that I had never experienced before, devoid of ego."
Product's 10th anniversary edition will be on streaming services on Wednesday, June 18. Physicals, including a deluxe vinyl, CD, and NFC scannable "PRODUCT card" formats, will be available in stores starting July 11.
