Premiere: David Lynch - Are You Sure (Bastille Remix)

Start the weekend with his superb and a bit spooky Bastille remix of David Lynch's dreamy Are You Sure. We're suckers for the original, found on The Big Dream album, and this mix opens up a whole new dimension. Dan Smith of Bastille has added harmonies and backing vocals that leaves our brain trying to figure out if it's heavenly or hellish ones. Perhaps it's right in between. Sounding lovely, there is also an element of pure darkness found. Secrets hoping they're forgotten lurking in the background... We said about the album version it was like stepping into a small bar in a strange town and hearing your whole life unveil through the jukebox in a corner. This is still true, but this time it's a live show with father and son singing softly in the corner, with people moving slowly in the shadows.

Bastille Feat. O.N.E. - Thinkin Bout You (Frank Ocean Cover)

Bastille and their founder Dan Smith had a huge 2012 with their UK #1 debut album Bad Blood. Equally crazy was Frank Ocean's year with his massive Channel Orange breakthrough. More than fitting that all this talent come together in this breathtaking cover of heart wrenching and stunning Thinkin Bout You. To say we love the original is an understatement and this cover adds a layer that is hard to shake. Like being sucked into a beautiful nightmare. You can tell something is wrong but the beauty surrounding hides it. Dan's voice sparkles but underneith hides a dark strange voice and in the shadows lurks more. The xylophone by O.N.E. adds wonderful texture too. The Bastille EP Laura Palmer is out tomorrow! Enjoy!
