Remix Monday: Ladyhawke “Back of the Van” Posted: 27 Apr 2009 12:18 PM PDT Ladyhawke is New Zealander Pip Brown who is signed to Australian record label, Modular, like so many other great acts; Cut Copy, The Presets, Van She. She creates a blend of music that is all parts dance, pop, and nostalgia. A talented musician, Ladyhawke plays all the instruments on her self-titled debut album, released last September. Of all her tracks that I’ve heard, “Back Of The Van” is my favorite. It was actually one of my favorite songs of last year. “Back Of The Van” is a 1980s retro song that is a mix between Van She and Stevie Nicks. And so appropriate is the Van She comparison as the album was produced by one of its members. The song features glittering synthesizers and romantically nostalgic lyrics, primarily a result of Brown’s voice and the hesitancy of a relationship while honestly speaking your feelings. It’s an extremely catchy tune reminiscent of The Cars or better yet, Fleetwood Mac spinning disco. And with that said, it is staggering the number of remixes out for this track. We shall cover but a few. .Ladyhawke - “Back of the Van” .Van She Tech Remix .ddpesh Remix .Fred Falke Remix .Mr. Vega Remix Related Posts |
