[Watch] The xx and Jessie Ware Cover Stardust's "Music Sounds Better With You" Live in Berlin
There's been a lot of love lately for Stardust's lone hit single "Music Sounds Better With You" (see Giraffage's fantastic remix here), and that continued last night. During The xx-led Night + Day concert in Berling, the band brought fellow Londoner Jessie Ware onstage to help them with a unique cover of the song. Ware's vocals add a touch of sensuality to The xx's atmospheric instrumentation. Let's hope a studio version hits the web soon. For now, you can watch the live version below.
The next and final Night + Day concert takes place at London's Hatfield House, with The xx leading a bill that includes performances from Solange, Poliça, Kindness and Mount Kimbie.
[Listen] Giraffage Remixes Stardust's "Music Sounds Better With You"
As the May 21st release date of Random Access Memories approaches, I've been digging into all my old Daft Punk records in anticipation. That also includes all of the duo's side projects, like Together and Stardust. Seems like I'm not the only one doing so. San Francisco producer Giraffage takes Stardust's famous single "Music Sounds Better With You" and gives it a fresh spin, turning what was originally a disco-inspired house banger into a chilled-out atmospheric cut. Consider this classic track revitalized.
