Hype Machine has a popular list and while I'm no stalker peeking out at people's favorites everyday on any sort of schedule, I do check out the top ten from time to time. Usually it's a mix of well known classics and half thought out house pop remixes of indie favs. And in all honestly, sometimes I am shocked by what people are digging, I'm looking at you Rage Against the Machine techno remixes, but other times, the crowd gets it oh so right.
This is a case of the latter and without further ado I present to you the danceably luscious, Air-like synths of Priors' "What You Need (Hey Champ Remix)." A few seconds in and you can tell these guys are from France, but that is about all I know. What I am sure of is that this is one of those special songs that can bring out a sunny day feeling, even if the weather doesn't share its sentiments. So give Ryan Adams' Heartbreaker a rest and re-imagine a brighter day right before we are knee deep in scarves, mittens, rain, sleet and snow. Cheers.
