After hearing errbody and their brother in the greater New York City area talking all kinds of mad game about how fantastical the first ever (I think it was their first ever?) live performance by Brooklyn’s Holy Ghost! recently, I figured I better give it my due diligence and check them out. And it turns out that it is rather enjoyable to listen to their music via some sort of speaker or headphone device. I know they’ve been spittin out mad remixes for quite some time now, but they’ve just recently released their Static on the Wire EP. This track, “Say My Name”, is rather sultry if I do say so myself. Have no fear, it’s not a cover of that Destiny’s Child song from back in the day. Although I did sorta like that song. Especially the part where they started singing really fast. And I feel like the whole video was just them posing. But anyway, despite the low key nature of this tune, I think a lot of Holy Ghost! tracks are way more high energy. Kind of like the remix of LCD Soundsystem’s “Drunk Girls” below. Normally, I don’t much care for this song at all, but Holy Ghost! has managed to make me want to listen to it over and over (well, this remix version at least). Because it is much better in this form than in its original if you ask me. I think these two bands are touring together right now. Maybe they will do a live version of the remix. I’ve always wanted to see that happen. It only makes sense.
