In this business, you come across some amazing music on a daily basis. You also come across some amazing people. San Francisco/Brooklyn based indie-pop duo Wildlife Control, comprised of brothers Neil and Sumul Shah, embody both of the previous statements. Not only have they been writing catchy, jazzy, the-hook-is-so-good you can’t stop singing tunes, but they’re also really warm and kind people. It’s truly something refreshing to experience given the sometimes cutthroat industry that we’re based in.
With that being said, Wildlife Control recently asked us to be an official judge in their Official “Analog or Digital” Remix Competition sponsored by SoundCloud and Native Instruments. We of course accepted, and were elated with the fact that we were going to be a part of a very noteworthy panel of judges including the band and Indie Shuffle. This contest kicks off today, and if you’d like to enter, you can find all of the necessary details here.
To start this off right we’re offering up a TMN Exclusive, which is the band’s NES-style remix. This 8-Bit track will take you back to your Nintendo days (if you’re old enough to remember playing Nintendo). One of our favorite parts is the treatment of the vocals, which still maintain the band’s essence, but make you feel like you’re in Super Mario Brothers at the same time.
