Lianne La Havas – Forget (Shlohmo remix)
January 11, 2012 3 comments
Many moons ago when we were still in our lust stage with the “Seconds Please” series I shared a cover by another member of my girl crush club, Lianne La Havas. Some of you sensitive readers may have gotten a chance to see her open for Bon Iver since then, as she’s been bopping around the US all winter. Anyways, just this week remixes of “Forget” have started to surface on the interwebs and this one is brilliant. Shlohmo takes the song to a cold, dark, place that audibly depicts the overall vibe of the original track, although I have only heard live versions of Lianne’s ballad. When hearing it in comparison to the live take it’s nearly unrecognizable (save for the vocals) but not in a bad way, in a very very good way. You can still get her Live EP for free via this link if you want more La Havas in your life.
Listen to Lianne do her thing here:
