Remix Sunday


Alan Braxe & Fred Falke have combined for some of the most bumpin' remixes in the past year or so, including their incredible renovations of Kelis' "Bossy" and DFA1979's "Black History Month." Though this Test Icicles remix dropped in '06, I doubt enough people have been exposed to its 80's synth lines and fuzzed out bassline. The predominate melody sounds as if its main inspiration was a Simple Minds track used to flesh out a Molly Ringwald teen romance, but luckily being paired with these unabashed whisky-hoarse lyrics gives the song a fresher aesthetic. All in all, this is certainly a banger for the summer, if not last summer, I think I'm much delayed in getting this up on the ol' interweb.
