Usually more minimal in his approach, the opening track from Danton Eeprom‘s latest album sounds like it could have come from a mid-80’s Bowie-produced Iggy Pop track. Etienne Jaumet‘s remix of “Thanks for Nothing” transforms the track with his signature analog synth approach while maintaining the original’s catchy melodic core. The washed, echoing vocals of the original are also left intact for the most part, with a lovely loop riding over the piece’s plodding beat towards its end. Moments of squelch and overdrive make for some great peaks and valleys, giving the feeling that Jaumet has out-housed Eeprom himself, which is a pretty amazing feat.
