Norwegian producer LINDSTRøM has released a jazzed-up Saturday night remix of GRIZZLY BEAR’s ‘Gun Shy’, a sultry back track from the 2012 album Shields.
The remix picks up the pace of the original, adding in extra elements from snappy percussion to bold keyboard. A good 4 minutes of electro before we hear from Ed Droste. LINDSTRøM has changed the spirit of the song from melancholy to lively and carefree.
A combination of disco synth and a pumping bass line provide a 90s dance feel – in clear contrast to the sweeping harmonies and soul vocals of the original. Who would have ever thought that we could hear GRIZZLY in the club?
LINDSTRøM, aka. Peter Lindstrom, recently joined the Future Classics team and is playing the Sydney Town Hall on Australia Day. MORE INFO
