Distorted Noize

Yesterday, I was browsing around Hype Machine and I found this remix of Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ Maps by Atlas. The hell if I know who these DJs are, but this is a pretty dope remix.

I’ve rambled on and on about my love for Yeah Yeah Yeahs plenty of times by now. Seeing a remix done of a Yeah Yeah Yeahs song, particularly of their newer stuff, isn’t so uncommon. I mean, “Zero” and “Heads Will Roll” has been remixed so many times by now, as good as some of them are, I’ve stopped bothering to count. But it is a bit of head scratcher to find a new remix done of “Maps”.

“Fever To Tell” is a very raw, arty-garage rock album, and lying in the midst of it all is “Maps”, which is as tender a love song you are ever going to find. That album and this song is just perfect to me, but damn this remix to “Maps” is just fucking sick!
