Tomas Barfod | November Skies (Jerome LOL & Sepalcure Remixes)

Tomas Barfod ’s November Skies remix EP isn’t due out until November 26 (via Friends of Friends ), though a number of the tracks have already seen the light of day. The EP is packed full of reworks of Barfod’s standout piece from Salton Sea and thus far, folks such as Jerome LOL and Sepalcure have thoroughly complimented the original with their thoughtful interpretations.

There’s something about those pitched-up chipmunk vocals that I’ve always found obnoxious. However, Jerome LOL manages to manipulate Nina Kinert’s with tasteful restraint, resulting in a sparkly, sun bathed tune that, as Gorilla vs. Bear notes, “rivals the soaring euphoria of the original.” Berlin production duo Sepalcure present a different spin on “November Skies,” which rides on shimmering synths that float over elegantly layered percussion.

Tomas Barfod | Broken Glass (Young L Remix)

The Pack’s Young L is a good friend of Tomas Barfod and has taken it upon himself to craft yet another brilliant remix of the lead single from Salton Sea , Barfod’s most recent release. Purchase the LP from Friends of Friends here .

Young L’s rework is a far cry from Shlohmo ‘s downbeat rework, released earlier this month, but it works just the same.

Short and sweet-
