Chew Lips, “Salt Air (Plastician RMX)” MP3
British Kitsuné babes Chew Lips’ epic drunk-driving single/metaphor has been out for a hot minute, not to mention it feels like it’s been reworked a million times. But this new version is an extra special entry in the computer-remixing device* assembly line: resident Rinse DJ/dubstep master Plastician threw vocalist Tigs’ power-drama vocal parts on some signature atmospheric dark bass palpitations and they got hella canyonized up in this piece. Dubstep vocals are rare enough but dubstep vocals that resonate with and match the fierce gravity of the genre are rarer. It’s like a damn eagle ascending into the yonder, dogs. (via Funkism)
*Actual office convo: Julianne: “Sam, what is that program that people use to remix stuff again? ProTools?” Sam: “I mean, I think people just use GarageBand but don’t admit it.”

Video: CHEW LiPs, “Salt Air”
- story THE FADER
The old-timey photo effect plus sepia lo-fi animation is really working for this one. Can whoever did this come draw stuff all over our real life? We want to walk around with animation coming out of our footprints. If you happen to be in London this evening, perhaps stop by the Lexington for CHEW LiPs’ video release party? Because “You’re an ocean, I’m the salt air” is a good lyric. (via Funkism)
