Excuse me while I get lost in this beat

“A heartbeat, a flicker, a line; it’s just a line”
I blogged about how awesome Late of the Pier was a couple of months ago. And now, Hot Chip has provided a sweet remix of “Heartbeat.”

If you aren’t into this remix at first, wait until the song is about halfway through. The “Sandstorm”-like ambiance and electrified guitar riff creep up unexpectedly and really coerce you into the music (this is a good kind of coercing…). I also like how Hot Chip made the remix mainly focus on the lyrics; “it’s just a line.”

Late of the Pier – Heartbeat

The bears are coming

This song is the theme song of this bear. Sometimes the bear will switch it to the remixes just to confuse people.

Late of the Pier – The bears are coming

Late of the Pier – The bears are coming (Partyshank remix)

Watch out for the big black blob

Late of the Pier

Late of the Pier; they’re pretty awesome. They sound kind of like a concoction of DFA 1979, an electro-fied modern version of Sweet and a dance-ified version of the Foals (I love made-up words). They come from the mighty land of England and seem to enjoy being shirtless.
Check ‘em out!
