Jonsi Remix of Sin Fang’s Stand out Track ‘young Boys’ Just Made Our Week [stream]

Sin Fang – Young Boys (Jonsi Remix) SoundCloud

Last year, we fell pretty much head over heels for the Icelandic group Sin Fang. Their sophomore album Flowers was absolutely spectacular, particularly the lead off track, “Young Boys.” With it’s lo-fi and casual sweetness, the song was on basically every playlist we made all year. Lucky for us, Jónsi, from the little band Sigur Rós, remixed the track, and it’s everything we could have hoped for and more. Jónsi keeps the jangling percussion and vocals completely intact and adds a deep well of sound, including electronic flourishes and added bass to make the track even deeper and more engaging than before. It’s a slight transformation, keeping what was so charming about the song in the first place, but one that absolutely makes it worth a whole new year of repeat listening.
