Back to your regularly scheduled program….
Sometimes I get a song via email and I listen to it and I like it and I star it for posting and then forget about it. Like this one from approximately 2 months ago that has been sitting there, lonely and abandoned for months. It’s from NazcarNation, the second quasi-auto-racing inspired band name that I can think of that I first heard about in 2010 (Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. anyone?), and while I like the original version of this song, it’s the complete deconstruction and reconstruction by UK producer Star Slinger, another fellow that I seem to have heard a whole lot about as of late, that really caught my attention. I’ve included the original version of the track as well so you can see how the two work in tandem, with the pulsating Star Slinger remix taking the vocals and kicking them up a few hundred octaves (when theyre present at all that is). It’s this kind of tune that gives me visions of warm days and summertime. Maybe that’s why I’ve been so drawn to them in this first/second official week of winter.
