Phoenix-Entertainment (Blood Orange Remix)
Phoenix-Entertainment (Blood Orange Remix)
While I’ve been eagerly awaiting a follow up to 2011’s Coastal Grooves for awhile now, Blood Orange is clearly showing no signs of slowing down. When Dev Hynes isn’t working his production magic for people like Solange or Sky Fereirra, he’s busy churning out enticing remixes like this rework of Phoenix’s comeback single “Entertainment”, proving that his finesse is undeniable and alluring to say the least. Though the track retains fragments of the original, the addition of illuminating synths, funky basslines and lavish vocal work — courtesy of London girl group MKS — transforms “Entertainment” into a song that’s pounding with a sensual and vibrant R&B flair. The remix is more my style so for that reason alone I think it’s a tad bit better but regardless, it’s a damn good track. If you’re digging it as much as I am then head over to soundcloud and grab the track for free.
