Remember falling for this jam by peculiar Montreal producer/vocalist D’Eon when our resident contributor Tosin posted it earlier in the month. Original’s reminiscent of that fluffier breed of 80s R&B cuts, so Tom Krell (a.k.a. How To Dress Well) obviously had to come along and prod his necromantic touch.
With a warped inclination of Dirty South( 808 claps, intensive hi-hats) under a bed of jingly-jangly, retro synth forced to echo more and phantasm vocal layers typical of Krell’s work, this remix works really well and faintly reminds of Moments in Love by Art of Noise.
