Night Slugs honcho remixes Belgian duo.
On his remix of ‘Melvin’, Bok Bok of Night Slugs turns a track by Belgian musicians Arsenal that was once a goofy synth-rock stomp into something minimal and unsettling. Guest vocalist Shawn Smith, formerly of Seattle band Pigeonhed now contends a big funeral organ, drums that alternately drip and slam, and what sounds like a monosyllabic T.I. come-on.
Below, we have not only the premiere of Bok Bok’s remix, but also the debut of Arsenal’s clip for the original version.
