Ahead of their London show tonight, Yeah Yeah Yeahs have unveiled a remix of their new single ‘Despair’ reworked by one Dave Sitek.
The TV On The Radio man, who has recently been working with the likes of Kelis on new material, has taken on the Mosquito track for what he calls the ‘David Andrew Sitek vs. Otis Pear Remix’.
We’re assuming it’s just Sitek alone involved in the rejig though, as ‘Otis Pear’ said out loud sounds an awful lot like “Oh Despair”.
Stream the remix over at Pitchfork now.
