The Rakes’ 1989 remix

April 7, 2009

I was first introduced to London-based band The Rakes a couple of years ago when my partner Kathleen downloaded a copy of the song “Work, Work, Work (Pub, Club, Sleep).” A few weeks ago the band uploaded individual tracks (vocals, guitar, drums, etc.) of the song “1989” from their latest release, Klang, on SoundCloud. I couldn’t help but try a remix myself.
