New Notwist - "Boneless (Panda Bear Remix)"
If you were forced to close your eyes and had to guess, it'd be hard to locate the original song behind Panda Bear's "remix" of the Notwist's "Boneless." Which is why it's Noah's photo up there, not the German ambient pop crew. Whereas Odd Nosdam added skittering fuzz and distortion to The Devil, You + Me's "Sleep," Panda Bear rebuilds "Boneless" from top to bottom, shifting the rhythm and pitch, adding a tropical core that doesn't exist on the original. As the word "boneless" might suggest (and maybe suggested to him?), he gives the song an entirely new skeleton.

In case you want to compare/contrast the climate-changing extreme makeover, take a listen to "Boneless" in its original form. You can take this remix home as the b-side to the Notwist's "Boneless" single: It's out now via Domino.
