Con ustedes el video del último sencillo de Crystal Fighters “Champion Sound”. En el video dirigido por Ben + Lewis, nos muestra lo increíble que puede ser el amor con la chica indicada. Enjoy.
Hot on the heels of a brilliant rework for The Good Natured, it looks like Crystal Fighters have picked up the phone and found their calling as remix connoisseurs. Their latest is a tribal balearic rework of Alex Winston's "Velvet Elvis", previously remixed to bits by RAC in another seriously winning effort. The jubilant London five piece uproot the rustic leftfield pop of the original and ship it off to some faraway tropics to get some color, blowing over the vocals with just the right amount of dicey echoes and hums while going hammer on the wind chimes and shakers throughout. And by the time the synths wash over the chorus and fall back into the rhythm of the second verse, you half expect to taste that salty seaside air and feel the sand between your toes. Good stuff, this.
I think by now it’s pretty obvious that Crystal Fighters do well with the remix treatment. Lorcan Mak takes “I Love London” to a pretty weird place, while Picture House goes straight warm weather vibage on “In The Summer”. Neither of these are new, but whatever, good music is timeless, brah.
