Following his amazingly epic remix for Get Free he dropped earlier in the month, Vancouver’s BLOOD DIAMONDS has released an out of this world remix for another one of last years biggest tracks, KENDRICK LAMAR's Swimming Pools. DRANK.

On top of the kind of the slinky futuristic garage breaks, Balearic breakdowns and slimy basslines we’ve become accustomed to from him and his pals, BLOOD DIAMONDS goes to work warping and filtering Kendrick’s vocals, reducing his intellectual tirade about conscious self destruction into cosmic alien garble. He then hops into his UFO and ascends to the skies.
