The Sound Of Silence (The Golden Pony Remix)
Brooklyn’s favorite Electro-Disco revivalists The Golden Pony have had quite the knack for their selections in remixing from Daft Punk to Avicii to Carousel (a track we posted a few months back) and now Simon & Garfunkel, the duo seem to pair their beats symbiotically even with such a classic original like S &G’s “The Sound of Silence”. TGP take their listeners all the way back to 1964 when records were still manufactured on wax and love was as free as that killer whale Willy, but also bring “The Sound of Silence” back to 2013 with a techno sounding deep, arpeggiated synth punching its way over the original chord progression and Paul Simon’s unmistakable vocal intonations sounding as pristine and gorgeous as the day they were recorded. The tune comes as part of a new project from The Golden Pony entitled “Golden Classics” which will see the boys adding their funky-fresh groove to classic tunes from the 60’s all the way up to the 90’s, and as always it’s being offered up as free download through, so grab it while you’re here.
