Foals x Deadboy

Foals have written one of the most heart wrenching tunes of the year for me, “Spanish Sahara” – an introspective self-reflective piece that penetrates the mind and soul. Epic to say the least. UK 2-Step-ineer, Deadboy comes in and transforms the sparse tune into a dark Detroit dancefloor friendly tune, classic 909 drum samples and a slinky bassline that screams to the Detroit Dance gods. Be sure to check out the massive Deadboy tune, “If U Want Me” – fantastic sample, drum pattern and bassline.

Foals x Mount Kimbie

I was never a huge fan of Foals and their post/math-rock sound, with their angular guitars and syncopated rhythms and the singer’s almost shrill voice. But this new single “Spanish Sahara” is a gorgeous and well written tune that is a bigger and better step for the band. The accompanying video is an epic/sad video that reminds me of something Sigur Ros/Explosions in The Sky would create. Check out this remix of the new single by Mount Kimbie who turns the track into a warm haunting electronic tune, doing what Mount Kimbie does best, looking forward to Mount Kimbie’s album coming out later this year.
