Why do we like this?
Enter the Mexicans With Guns remix of "We Will Become The Silhouettes", the best-named Remix of 2009 (beating out Hipster Or Homeless by a narrow margin). This track is phenomenal. The slow intro reminds me of Vangelis' "Chariots of Fire" - epic to say the least.

Some more great stuff happens here with the vocals - well timed echoes that create off-rhythms that really spice up the track. And more than ever before I find myself concentrating on the lyrics, which are actually pretty cool. A well played remix that really enhances my enjoyment of the song, this track has an embarrassingly high play count on my iTunes and I'm not getting tired of it yet. - The Stu Reid Experiment
