We Are The People
The weather kind of rules Chicagoans for about 7 grueling months out of the year. 7 long months of sheer suffering. I really don’t know how we cope. Thus, the trend of discussing the weather, continues. Here we are in April; it’s fucking cold and it’s snowing. I’m going to pretend I’m in the skin of Nick Littlemore and Luke Steele, prancing around amidst the heat of the desert in the Mexican towns of Garcia, Xilitla, and Icamole, where the video for “We Are The People“, was shot.
Empire of The Sun truly understand the meaning of creating songs that tug at your heart and your soul. “We Are The People”, is fueled by intense guitar chords, beautiful lyrics and the distinct sounds of Empire of The Sun. It’s no surprise that once the duo puts out a track, it’s quickly remixed.
Hungary’s Tits And Clits also know a thing or two about creating superb, epic music, as heard in the unofficial remix they’ve done for “We Are The People”, part of the Buffet Libre project. They’ve created an extended version and a shorter edit, which you’ll find below. Brooklyn-based, singer songwriter, Kotchy creates a unique and experimental remix, that showcases an array of sounds. Pick up his “I Have To Be High”, EP here and his latest LP, “89″, here. Visit Empire of The Sun’s merch page to pick up some more goods.

It has been below normal all year here in Winnipeg Manitoba. I’m sure the summer will be hotter than Mumbai (but the earth is just fine).

[...] Mexicans. I like the Mexican scenery and post-apocalyptic style. If the intent of their sound is to “tug at your heart and your soul”, they got me. Long live the [...]
