There is no escaping the magic of Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros. They’re a massive band and I’m not just talking about their size in regards to how many band members they cram on stage. Despite numerous people up there, Edward Sharpe and his gang are not Canadians. They’re based right out of Los Angeles, but they’ve been everywhere. They’ve been on tour all over the States and Europe, have been scheduled to play at every summer festival and are also in every other TV show or commercial.
Sharpe (aka Alex Ebert) who is also a part of the band Ima Robot, has this contagious spirituality that turns all his listeners into very happy hippies. (Grumpy hippies do exist. They’re the ones who complain.) Perhaps it’s the fact that he slightly resembles Jesus, but songs such as “Home” get people moving like they’re dancing at the original Woodstock.
I’m assuming everyone has heard the song, ‘Home” by now so I’m offering a pretty rad remix of the track by RAC (Remix Artist Collective). This collective has done remixes of songs from everyone such as Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Tokyo Police Club, Hockey and more. What I like best about them is that their remixes add on elements instead of completely swallowing the original sound; they actually make the songs lighter instead of heavier or darker.
Check their remix out below. It’s been around for a while but I’m not one to be concerned about racking up the hits on this little ol’ blog of mine with songs the second they come out. If I like something, I’ll share it with you when I feel you need to hear it and now is the time you need to hear this track. Enjoy!
I am obsessed with this song and this picture of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. I will be posting this song tomorrow, thank you so much for sharing! Such a joy to listen to!
I LOVE this song!!! I can’t stop listening to it. Thank you. It’s hard to find good, quality music these days. Thank you.
