Would have liked to purge that fairly unforgiveable trumpet & generally warp & toughen this very Balearic remix up - but here anyway is a rough & ready hack of Loving Hand versus Lykke Li. Get the given-away 'original' here & the remix EP from which it comes here (listen via widget below).
Can hardly claim this version as a full-blown edit. But it does add a welcome wodge of wah wah to LH (part of DFA)'s nicely spacious, richly throbbing re-imagining of the Nordic popstress's saccharine rush.
