Recently some slick tracks landed in my inbox courtesy of Streetlab - a mix of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and some Hall and Oates. I listened to the tracks once on my earbuds and thought - cool, those tracks are pretty decent.
When I got home, I threw on some quality cans and listened to the tracks again on some headphones with bass. WHOLE NEW BALLGAME.
These tracks are seriously good. Combine them with an earlier bass-crunching Streetlab remix of Passion Pit's "Sleepyhead", and you have my heart.
The Hall and Oates tune combines some overtly mechanical drums and autotune with the original organic vocals for a great juxtaposition that really highlights the best parts of the original while giving it some well received thump.
The Beatles remix is dark, heavy, and occasionally disjointed. But in the best way possible.
The Passion Pit remix is completely bonkers. The low end blows my mind.
Instructions:
1. Listen to a song to adjust your volume to optimal level.
2. Double that volume.
3. Play these 3 songs in a row.
4. If you don't bump to these you're probably not human.
Lights down, Volume up, that's the way we like to THUMP.
