A month after announcing their next project Flower of Devotion Remixed, out September 17th via Fire Talk, Dehd are sharing one of its songs.
The Chicago band are releasing today the second single, which is the Lala Lala Remix of “Desire.” While the original stands out more for its drowsy and crunchy guitars, Lala Lala gives it a slight, dance twist. I’m down with this.
Listen to Dehd’s “Desire” (Lala Lala Remix) below.
Pre-order Flower of Devotion Remixed
Dehd’s Jason Balla says of the track via a press release:
Lillie [West] from Lala Lala really cut this one down to just the vocals and built it back from there… The first time I heard it I was amazed at the intensity of the vocals, it was like hearing the song for the first time. I think sometimes there’s this impulse in music making that more equals intensity, but I’d say this remix is an argument against that kind of logic.
Lala Lala’s West adds:
Dehd are some of my best friends and one of my favorite bands… and it was an honor to remix their song ‘Desire.’ Emily’s isolated vocals made me cry. I hope you dance.
