Today's Quick Mention: Need something to do
tonight? Then attend the
Prototype
Fashion Freakout at the Mohawk. Doors are at
8pm, funnyman
Matt Bearden
is hosting, the
Carrots are
playing and a very nice reader by the name of Zoe
will be working. That's called a complete
package,
right? I think so.
Why? didn't
exactly (in my eyes, anyway) continue their
incredible
album streak with last year's Eskimo Snow,
but it's impossible to remember that when the band
is chugging along and calling in artists like the brilliant Amp Live
to craft a
remix EP based on said full length. See below
for my favorite selection off the five-track
effort
titled One Dark Eskimo. Enjoy.
:Why?
- Blackest Purse (Amp Live Remix):
I tend to think of remixes as good songs turned into
something I'm not that interested in hearing, so this should
probably just be labeled as an alternate version.
Plus, it's not like Amp Live really does anything crazy to
this track, he just presents a very nifty shift from the
original's dark and moody sound to one that's much warmer
and accessible. Now if only I could decide if I like
his take more.
Why? - Song Of The Sad Assassin
