Afghan Raiders Remix the Faint!
That’s right! Not Somali Pirates! The Afghan Raiders have taken the messy euphoric crunch of The Faint’s “Mirror Error” and streamlined it to brass, down to business tacks. It sounds a little like The Faint’s “Violent” in the way that it starts off slow and builds and builds, you get the idea. Listen below!
And The Faint is still on tour with Ladytron!

Dada Life Remix Lykke Li
Are you ready for more modest cutesy female vocals over thumping beats and stuttering synth arpeggios? Of course you are. Dada Life transforms the slowly sashaying original into an old school dancefloor storm. It might take a full minute before you recognize those gentle vocals, but the synth riff that drops and the use of the reverb on the vocals that creates a kind of”Pull Away” effect adds some serious velocity.
