It’s that time of the week!
I gotta tell ya, I needed a much more relaxed remix this week. Next week, I will be moving across the state of Oklahoma to be attending school. This won’t be changing anything regarding the way IHYEB is run, or the regularity of my posts, but it is stressing me out.
This remix is beautiful. Just… Beautiful.
When Bloc Party remixes someone, it’s serious business, and this is no exception.
Every riff feels new. Every hiss of the electric drums slithers its way down your ears. The added reverb adds the trademark Bloc Party ambiance I’ve come to adore so much!
I’m currently sitting in my local Starbucks drinking a Half-Decaf Nonfat No-Whip White Mocha, and this song makes me feel a million miles away when I close my eyes.

I hope your ears find the same comfort in this remix as mine. Ω

Hey Bleeders!
My name is Cody Bromley, and I’ve actually been hiding behind the scenes here for quite some time now, and Nathan finally gave me the green-light to come out into the open and start blogging.
So I’m here for a fun new regular treat.
Remix Wednesday.
In keeping with the overall tone of the website I wanted the first song I picked to be something a little more indie-folk-pop-ish. So I dug, and dug through all my remixes, and I found the perfect song.
Helicopter (Original Version) by Bloc Party
Helicopter (Whitey Remix) by Bloc Party (removed 2/13/09)
So today, if you’ve never had a chance to hear it, I introduce you to the Whitey remix of this glorious song. What makes this remix stand out isn’t so much changes to the overall song, for which very few seem to even be present, but rather that it changed the emphasis inside the song from the guitar to the drums. A few howling wolves and owls thrown in feel a little obtuse, and unnecessary but are also pretty fun.
I yearn for you to enjoy this chance to enjoy a song a second time.
And I hope your ears bleed a second time. Ω
