Phoenix

"Entertainment" (Blood Orange remix)

BY Alex HudsonPublished Mar 26, 2013

Pheonix's "Entertainment" has already gotten a reworking courtesy of Dinosaur Jr., and now Blood Orange (aka Lightspeed Champion's Dev Hynes) has also taken on the latest single from the French pop geniuses.

This track favours smouldering intensity over the joyous exuberance of the original, as the hook is transformed into a soulful R&B ballad and the groove is slow, atmospheric, and faintly chillwave flavoured.

This remix was clearly sanctioned by Pheonix, since it was posted on their SoundCloud account. Their album Bankrupt! drops on April 23 through Glassnote.
