The Remix: The Presets - This Boy's In Love (Lifelike Remix)


Y'know, normally I wouldn't bother posting a track that is burning up the Hype Machine (which you all check for music daily, don't deny it), but fuck it. The death rattle of my credibility as a music blogger will be drowned out by this amazing Presets remix by Lifelike. A track from the band's eagerly anticipated sophmore album Apocalypso, This Boy's in Love is a sweet track in a kinda synthpop electro style. But something about the way Lifelike leaves the vocals kind of naked and at the forefront on this version just gets me, the track ends up sounding like the lovechild of DMX Krew's 17 Ways to Break my Heart and Camouflage's The Great Commandment, which is to say fucking great. Enjoy. Apocalypso is out April12 in their native Australia, May 13th in North America, I am anticipating it gleefully.

Bodes well for the new record. Gonna be dropping this remix at another grad student association do this Friday. Crikey, does anything sound more indie snobbish than a grad student disco? It's the exact opposite, though. Mucho unironic partying down by the biology folk who are ecstatic to be let out of the lab for an evening.
