Zippy electro beats with classic songs

I think I’m in love. Pocketknife and Cousin Cole are teaming up as “Flagrant Fowl.” They’re taking classic songs by Nico, Bruce Springsteen, Iron & Wine and others. I think what I like most about the remixes, from what I’ve heard, is that they are gentle like the originals. They just add a little more effervescence and modernity to the tracks that somehow makes them a little more tranquil. I’m really quite sad that these aren’t released yet, but a blog post on Pocketknife’s myspace says that they should be released by the end of September on vinyl and cd. I can’t wait. Here’s also a minimegamix Cousin Cole posted on his myspace;
