Au Revoir Simone - Night Light
If you’re anything like me, the idea of Brooklyn’s extraordinarily cool synth-pop trio, Au Revoir Simone, being remixed and re-imagined by the likes of Jens Lekman, Neon Indian and Angel Deradoorian is a pretty appealing idea. Keeping the same tracklisting as 2009’s Still Night, Still Light, this record is quite distinctively a new piece of work and the impact of each remixer comes through well, particularly in Lekman’s string-laden re-interpretation of Shadows. Not a remarkably fresh one but this seems to be worth dusting off from earlier this year.
