SBTRKT - "HOLD ON" (SISI BAKBAK REMIX)


Very nice remix this. SBTRKT’s “Hold On” as flipped by SISI BAKBAK, which just happens to be man like Thom Yorke's new electronica-fuelled side project - but I didn't know this on first listen, and was suitably impressed.

I remember back when Radiohead first began to move away from guitar-heavy music, we had a conversation comparing dance producers to the then-burgeoning beats of Kid A. We (perhaps unfairly) played something like Kirk DeGiorgio straight after, and commented on how much better the overall sound was, as opposed to the sometimes 'tinny' beats of Kid A. Since then Radiohead have come a long way as a band, and so has Thom as a producer. The overall production on "Hold On" is fully in the electronic music arena. There's thankfully no Radiohead-isms at all, apart from a general melancholic energy infused throughout, and the sound has more weight to it then say the lo-fi "The Eraser" project. Very nice woozy background vocals. Reminds of me a little of Laurent Garnier, or a more sparse Plaid.
