TRYING TO FIND THE INBETWEENS.

With the release of The Naked & Famous' anthemic debut single "Young Blood" cresting over the horizon as we prepare to drop it next week, it's time to dip into the excellent remix package that's coming together around it. Earlier today Popjustice premiered the epic Sound of Arrows remix as his Song of the Day and made it available for free download on the main page, and now it's time for us to follow suit with the immense Pink Ganter remix. Reinventing the massive central riff of the original as a nearly oriental chimes progression and laying down a relentless, churning bassline along the backbone of the track, it's a brilliant reinterpretation that comes off like The Knife and Diplo getting down in the studio after ordering in one too many dumplings from their local Chinese takeout.

I mean I think this remix sort of hollows out the sun-drenched core of the song and makes something that, while bouncy and rhythmically interesting, is in the end kind of soulless. It's not a bad remix at all it just doesn't really capitalize on the songs potential.

Have to agree with whoever said it 'hollows out the sun-drenched core' - good little number for the deep of a saturday night though.
