Pit Of Diamonds

Usually I try to confine my remix festish to 'Stuck On Repeat' posts but, every now and again, a remix comes along that justifies a post all of its own.

Enter Passion Pit with their earth-shuddering 'Flex'd Rework' of Marina and the Diamonds' 'I Am Not A Robot'. The track sees Marina's original vocal manhandled by the Passion Pit boys and submerged in a sea of swirling synths and squelchy beats:



Brilliant.

Incidentally, it looks like Eimear and I will be making the journey down to Cork this weekend to see Passion Pit play at the latest Heineken Green Spheres gig. That's a distance further to travel than when we went to Carlow to see Marina play at a previous Green Spheres gig but I reckon it'll be worth it.
