Antony has a new album on the way, and posted on Facebook yesterday that it’s currently being mixed. We already knew Hudson Mohawke was co-producing, and it’s since been reavealed that Oneohtrix Point Never is too. The record will be released under the name ANOHNI and is titled HOPELESSNESS. “It’s an electronic record with some sharp teeth,” says Antony.

In other news, last week Antony released a single with Yoko Ono in honor of her 82nd birthday. They’ve worked together before. The Antony single features a duet of Ono’s “I Love You Earth,” which was originally on Yoko’s 1985 album, Starpeace. The flipside has Antony doing a solo version of Ono’s “I’m Going Away Smiling.” It’s out as a 10″ single and digitally an all proceeds go to the Rainforest Alliance. Stream it below.

That is one of two collaborative 10″ singles Yoko released last week, the other being with John Zorn and proceeds benefitting The Stone.
