Grandchildren Add Dates To US Tour And Premiere “Saturn Returns” Remix

Grandchildren, led by citizen of the world Aleks Martray, have added new dates to their tour supporting their album Everlasting, out now on Green Owl. One of these additional dates will see them share the bill with The Coathangers and most importantly, they will perform at the first annual Tell All Your Friends showcase at Brooklyn, NY’s Glasslands on November 11th. You can check the rest of their stops below.

And because they like to do things correctly, this news comes with a little present: a remix of their song “Saturn Returns” by the Brooklyn duo Runaway. In this reinterpretation, the song resembles tripped out old school electronic music similar to what I imagine you would hear if you took your old Game boy to a smoky club. Check it out:

Hyetal Reworks Ratatat’s “Neckbrace”

Get ready to break yo neck.  Well, not really, it just feels like the right thing to say when confronted with a Hyetal Remix of Ratatat’s “Neckbrace” off LP4.  The track has everything you’ve come to know and expect from a remix: glitchy-ness, odd sounds, and an overall taste of another artist reinterpreting an original style by blending in some of their own.

Hyetal mostly abandons the scat found in the original song, but utilizes the bubbly, croaking sounds that occupy the furthermost corners of your head room.  Interestingly enough, the original track didn’t incorporate much of Ratatat’s signature whining electro-guitar sound, but Hyetal throws it in probably out of respect for his source of inspiration. 

The track decelerates to lay room for a build up, and the hotel elevator muzak that brings you back to the beat collects everything for a head-bobbing, albeit not neck-breaking, finish.  Listen up below.
