Letting Up Despite Great Faults remix Silver Swans

Knox Road favorites, Letting Up Despite Great Faults, recently remixed a lulling Silver Swans song, which, knowing Letting Up, obviously resulted in something super whimsical. You know our feelings about remixes, we practically say it every time we post one (which is rare), but the good ones are too hard to ignore. Especially when it comes from… Continue reading Letting Up Despite Great Faults remix Silver Swans

Hometown: Glorious

I’ve decided to make “Hometown: Glorious” an annual Thanksgiving post, with basically the same content every time. There’s nothing like a little familiarity to set a tone around this time of year. For everyone in The US, Happy Thanksgiving, and for everyone else, I bet your family and friends would love a catch up call/hug… Continue reading Hometown: Glorious

Mixed emotions: The Golden Filter remix The Morning Benders’ “Excuses”

I love The Golden Filter, I really do. Their new album wasn’t the best or anything but I enjoyed it very much! The Morning Benders, on the other hand, are a band I love who happened to make one of the best albums I’ve heard in a very long time. The gem of that album,… Continue reading Mixed emotions: The Golden Filter remix The Morning Benders’ “Excuses”

[MP3] Maur Due & Lichter remix Zero 7 and JosĂ© GonzĂĄlez’s “Futures”

Remember Maur Due & Lichter? The electroacoustic Austrian duo whom I fell in love with after listening to their debut album, Another Day. Well, they’re back with a bonus remix of Zero 7 and JosĂ© GonzĂĄlez’s tune “Futures” from The Garden. Maur Due & Lichter’s take on the song makes it an even glitchier Zero… Continue reading [MP3] Maur Due & Lichter remix Zero 7 and JosĂ© GonzĂĄlez’s “Futures”

[MP3] Hands remix Local Natives’ “Camera Talk”

Wow. Hands just sent us their newest track, and it’s none other than a remix of Local Natives‘ popular song “Camera Talk”. As you may know, we don’t typically post remixes on Knox Road, but when two of our favorite bands combine, well, things change. Local Natives and Hands have become friends out on the… Continue reading [MP3] Hands remix Local Natives’ “Camera Talk”

[KR Flashback] Hometown: Glorious

If any of you (maybe, one, two?) were reading the blog at this time last year, you’ll remember I posted a little something about hometowns and their glory and all that. I actually didn’t say anything, but I got you in the mood. With Adele. Because, duh, she always gets you in the mood. It… Continue reading [KR Flashback] Hometown: Glorious

tUnE-YaRdS gets remixed!

Queen of DIY, tUnE-YaRdS, released her (awesome) debut album, BiRd-BrAiNs, earlier this year, but a deluxe version is now out on 4AD with some bonus remixes of her track, “Hatari.” What a gift! The song was remixed by Drunkenmonkey, Karn and The Small Is Beautiful, but I’ll give you the Drunkenmonkey version because it’s just… Continue reading tUnE-YaRdS gets remixed!

[MP3] Javelin remix The Very Best’s “Julia”

I was just listening to The Very Best’s Warm Heart Of Africa this morning and noting how awesome and refreshing the Radioclit/Esau Mwamwaya duo is, so imagine my surprise when Stereogum noted a new remix of their great song, “Julia!” I’ll save you the trouble, I was very surprised! And pleased with the result. The… Continue reading [MP3] Javelin remix The Very Best’s “Julia”
