Sin Fang: Young Boys (Jónsi Remix)
From nomadic tunes for the modern world to a comedic #PrivateJam by Vampire Weekend drummer Chris Tomson; the music we tweeted this week
Iceland is never shy of lush, low-fi musical exploration. Sin Fang, the solo project of Seabear’s Sindri Már Sigfússon, released the album Flowers this year and the lead track “Young Boys” has received its first ever remix by none other than Sigur Ros’ Jonsi. Flowers was actually recorded in Jonsi’s home, so it seems logical that his familiarity with the album’s development led to such an intimate, yet energized re-imagining. The reworked track soars and swirls, drawing upon the original’s beauty—but existing in a dimension all its own.
