I used to ride my chopper bicycle that I made, I would ride it to work from my tent to my workplace on Khandahar airfeild, listening to this song/track. I would listen to this during (taliban) rocket attacks. I don't know what it was about this song but it made me calm when tensions were high.
I hung out with Star Slinger this weekend and he told me he did this remix without the master tracks... he did it from an mp3 download that Pitchfork was giving away. In an ironic turn of events, Pitchfork then posted it with heavy praise on their website, which earned him massive attention. Now he's touring the US. Fucking amazing.
I listen to zillions of tracks for a music blog and this was my favorite remix of 2010, no question. Each section is a remix in itself yet the whole thing keeps the feel of the original track.
same man don't make me feel any worse lol but glad you're with me. I honestly realized how much of a "hipster" I truly was especially when the term was in when I realized I liked this the year it came out lol
Diplo's remix and Star Slinger's are both EPIC remixes but aren't comparable, this kind of reminds me of fidget dubstep while Diplo's remix sounds a little bit more like the original song. I love them both though.
for some reason, this song has inspired me to pack my shit, withdraw 1000 dollars from my checking account, fly to france and start a new life.............................I should stop smoking.
