Audio: Peter, Bjorn & John (And Spec Boogie)

• story THE FADER

We already knew we weren’t the only ones wishing someone would loop up and repurpose the sad sack boom-bap of Peter, Bjorn and John’s “Amsterdam” (aka the group’s other whistle song). First Plastic Little dropped it in the middle of their set – whole song, straight up – while performing at Studio B a few weeks ago. Then our dude at Def Jam kept raving over IM about how he wanted to burn it on a CD for Ghostface. Now we check the inbox this morning, and lo and behold: a mixtape version of “Amsterdam” courtesy of BK emcee Spec Boogie, tacking on appropriately bummed-out verses at the beginning and end (download here, right click and save-as). Great minds think alike.
