Editors - Blood (Freelance Hellraiser Editorial)

Well this morning i was listening to XFM (Oh that's right, here in Manchester we're mega-trendy with our XFM, just like London... But with more rain), and I heard a song I haven't listened to in a while, Blood by Editors. Top song, I thought, and not that overplayed (Not at least in my 'sphere' of music-listening).

As is often the way with these new danceable-indie songs, there is a remix by some trendy producer type which is much much better. In this case, the remix is by The Freelance Hellraiser. It's not overlong either, clocking in at 5:17, which is always nice. In the tradition of Phones mixes perhaps, this remix simply extends the songs, adds some nice bleeps and a better beat and, in my opinion, hugely improves the song -I always prefer a remix where you can actually recognise what the original song was!

You may have heard of Freelance Hellraiser before, you may not have. He's most famous for making that bootleg of Christina's Genie in a Bottle vs The Strokes' Hard To Explain (A Stroke of Genius) way back in 2001, a bootleg that was then, rather pointlessly, covered by a band called Speedway. He now has his own album out, Waiting for Clearance, which is OK, I had it on promo ages ago.
