The perfect accompaniment to the woozy, lethargic sway of the original cut – Tom Rowlands of The Chemical Brothers (who remixes under the RAR moniker) transforms I Break Horses‘ ‘Hearts’ into a hard hitting smorgasbord of galloping drums and gut wrenching klaxon-style synths. Playing down the fuzz of the original reveals a clearer vocal, the lyrics working flawlessly with the clattering drums: “Strike out to collide / Hit nothing but empty parts”.
Stream / download the remix below, but don’t forget to check out the brand new video by Alex Southam that accompanies the Rowlands rework beautifully.
The Line Of Best Fit’s John Freeman caught up with I Break Horses a week or so back. In their first ever interview, they reveal how the project came into being and also reveal details about the eagerly awaited debut album.
