What songs would you want BoC to remix/cover?

Post by Josh »

Subject line says it all I think. I'm interested in what people would suggest. Apologies if this has been done before.

I'll add my wish list once I have a thoughtfully considered one to submit. :idea:

I'm not sure what particular song I'd want them to remix, but I always think about what the duo could do with whatever top 40 EDM song. This might be just me. XD

Anything from the upcoming Chvrches album. Reckon the chaps could do something pretty unique with their material.

Sad no one thought to bring the boys on board for a remix to this song, since Bowie specifically cited them and Kendrick Lamar as influences to the album. I was crossing my fingers for something the entire time. A Kendrick remix to "Girl Loves Me" would have been great too.

Imagine those two reworks alongside the already semi-released NIN Remix of I Can't Give Everything Away and you have one bomb ass 12" remix EP (I'm sure Boards would make Blackstar twice as long and take the entirety of side A haha).

As much as I like a bit of Bowie, I've never been comfortable with that track.
There is something genuinely occult going on with it beneath the surface.

That's just my personal two (devalued) pence.

How about they remix this incredible advert from Ovo, featuring Raining Blood by Slayer and the 'Get Mad' speech from Network? They could call in Energy Warning or something...

They should put on their Play By Numbers-era shoegaze hats and remix something by My Bloody Valentine. Maybe "When You Sleep" or "I Only Said," since those are my favorites by them.

Can you imagine the exploding heads of every pretentious electronic music lover if Boards of Canada were to ever remix Tycho? I'd live for it. Someone make this happen. Solange will look like an angel.
