Boston’s own soulful dance ambassadors Passion Pit received another noteworthy remix treatment. Ben Macklin and Tom Hammond, the creative minds behind London’s Cassette Club graced “Sleepyhead” with their own blend of disco synths and soul music to create another example of their self-defined electrosexiness.
After gracing cuts of established acts like the Crookers, FutureFlashs and The Willowz the former Scandinavian now Californian electro collective Steed Lord bring forth their take on Passion Pit’s track “Little Secret”.
