Sofi Tukker have been asserting their musical presence all over the internet lately with their dance-ready version of indie meets electronic. They recently released their debut EP Soft Animals, which reached #15 on the Billboard charts, so it's only natural that fellow producers have begun to take notice.
The opening riff from the original version of Sofi Tukker's "Drinkee" has the perfect feel and energy for a remix. Actually, the entire song has the structure and appeal to support one.
Producers Vintage Culture & Slow Motion! build upon the minimal house beat of the original, turning it into a more club-worthy jam. I like that they leave it relatively untouched, allowing the Sofi Tukker's natural style to lead.
They launch the laid-back, rhythmic vocals into an intense build-up, and chop them up for the dance-inducing groove of the drop. Give this one a spin and catch Sofi Tukker on tour at the locations below:
