"I Melt with You" by Dingodile

 


If you are in a band or you're a solo performer that has a cover song posted on YouTube, and you want your listenership boosted by at LEAST seven or eight people, by all means, reach out to me!

That's exactly what New York City, New York plunderphonics composer Dingodile did when he collaborated with his friends neofolk duo PeachLeaf on another EDM remix, this one of Colchester, England post punk band Modern English's 1982 mainstream hit "I Melt with You."

While this version was pretty well aligned with the original, I did see some changes, and they were getting better all the time.  

One is the inclusion of many, many more synth produced quarter notes during the chorus, which may not increase the beats per minute, but certainly feels like it does.  So, if you're planning a mix tape for cardio workout purposes, this one should have a leg up on the original.

Another is the synthesizer singing parts of the chorus.  Take THAT, early '80s technology!
