Drafting up lofty introductions full of wordy superlatives to describe Wave Racer’s Australian/world domination is becoming rather redundant – so I’m just going to cut the chase. The Sydney-sider has dropped a fresh remix of Foster The People’s ‘Best Friend’ and it’s everything you’d expect from the wunderkind.
Despite a mounting repertoire of originals and remixes that are similar in structure and style, often featuring the same poppy samples and glitchy synths, we just aren’t getting tired of any of his output. Many up and coming producers are trying to emulate his sound, yet WR tracks remain instantly recognisable, solidifying his place at the top of the class of what I’m affectionately branding the ‘Kawaii Kids’ .
Like wearing a poncho, it’s impossible to be unhappy whilst listening to a Wavey track. Yiew!
Wave Racer featured on our very first compilation – Stoney Roads Volume One – and if you’d like the opportunity to nab a spot on Volume Three head here for all the details on how you could join such illustrious company!
Update: was a radio rip, shouldn’t be online… official release next week
