Psyched to share the third and final (for now, at least) remix of “Come and Go.” This one is courtesy of the incredible Spacebrother (Jared from Innerpartysystem). It premiered recently over at Some Kind of Awesome, where they said it “will definitely make you feel like you’re floating in space.”
I absolutely love what Jared did with it, and much like the other two remixes, he took the song to a new and completely different place. It almost reminds of “jynweythek” from Aphex Twin’s “Drukqs.”
Take a listen and let me know what you think! And by all means, please feel free to download it & share it far and wide.
Proud to share the second “Come and Go” remix, this time featuring awesome verses from two incredible rappers, Big Pooh (who you might recognize from Little Brother) and The Kid Daytona. The remix premiered earlier this month over at RCRD LBL, where they called me an “indie beat whiz…” works for me!
Ever since I first finished this song with The KickDrums, I kept thinking in the back of my mind how well the beat would feel with some rap verses – was so cool to hear Pooh and Daytona tear it up.
Take a listen via the Soundcloud player above, or download it here alongside the original version. And please feel free to share any and all of it far and wide:
The PRINTS launch has gotten off to an incredible start, and I am super psyched to share the first remix for “Come and Go” – this one is courtesy of the legendary RJD2. It premiered over on the MTV Blog just the other day.
For those of you that don’t remember, I first linked up with RJ when I remixed his song, “The Shining Path,” from his album, The Colossus. And so when it came time for me to start getting remixes together for PRINTS, I hit him up.
Unsurprisingly, I LOVE what he did with it. He took the idea of the song and transported it to a completely different context, and that’s exactly what a great remix should do. If you compare the two, the original song is so electronic and tech-oriented, whereas RJ’s remix is completely organic – he played each of those parts (the drums, keys, bass, synths) live in his studio.
