XLR8R

Up-and-coming producer Aether's got a solo album in the works, Artifacts, due out November 25, but in the meantime, the San Diego beat-maker who doesn't sleep has remixed Swedish future-pop queen Lykke Li for fun. "Little Bit" saw an earlier reworking from DFA's Tim Goldsworthy, under his Loving Hand guise, which was a minimal and very electronic affair. Aether's chosen a somewhat different route here, opting for heavier drum sounds, airy synths, and lots of reverb added to Ms. Li's sugar-sweet vocals. Photo by Andy Eisberg.
