The guys from Delorean have turned the XX’s (already nice) Island into a beautiful pice of art. The change of guitars to a smooth organ makes the lyrics come to its right and I love the feeling that the track transmits.

During the last years, Death to the throne has made some stunning remixes for Chromeo, M83, the XX and Lykke Li, just to name a few of them. This time he brings us I only have eyes for you, an original with the same characteristics as his remixes, melodic electronica with nu rave influences without being too much. The remixes always make people go mad and I’m sure that I only have eyes for you also will.

It’s imposible talk about 2009 without mentioning the XX. I’ve done it before and I know I’ll do it again. Today I’m all into night time (what kind of breez do you blow extended edit).

I used to say that I preferred the original track and not the remixes. I suppose I said so therefore 1) there were no favorable remixes or 2) I just didn’t find them. Today when I discover new music at once I’m looking after remixes, if the first version is good, the other ones might be (a lot) better. This is a favorable example, don’t like the original at all but indeed the xx remix is amazing.
