As Kanye's 808s and Heartbreaks continues to reign o'er the Billboard charts and hearts alike, I've a great remix today of disk standout "Street Lights", that Ben Gibbard- caliber treatise on urban ennui that ranks alongside William Shatner's "It Hasn't Happened Yet" as one of the worst songs to listen to alone in city winters.
Having your mother/manager die during cosmetic surgery is a none- too- subtle metaphor for the need to prioritize your value system, and Ye' downright bleeds it on this track, elegantly re-upped by Record Machine's Max Justus. A thoroughly classy achievement of beat natation, Justus' remix is all at once vital, warm and lonely- like a basket of kittens left roadside.
D/L below, Max Justus' epic Five Leaping Leopards is available now via The Record Machine.
Kanye West "Street Lights (Max Justus Remix)"
Fresh, grim Max Justus! Life's just not fair!
