Timid Tiger – Electric Island (Timid Tiger’s Wake The Dead Remix)

Click on the turntable on the left to listen to a continuous stream of music featured on Pretty Much Amazing - updated every day. For more, you can check out the Best Songs of 2012.

Pretty Much Amazing World Premiere

As promised, the boys are back with a new album, Timid Tiger & The Electric Island due out on January 29th in their mother country, Germany. But before then Timid Tiger are releasing a four-track EP, named after the album’s first single, “Electric Island.” The EP will be available digitally on October 2nd and sold physically on tour.

Timid Tiger remixed the titular track for this EP, and Pretty Much Amazing is premiering it here and now. Timid Tiger transformed their cartoon-pop (you like that?) jam into an three parts electro-banger and one part space-y blues joint. After listening to their mash-up/remix skills on “Are You Gonna My Way” and now on “Electric Island,” my ears are telling me that these guys should start remixing more often.

I like this remix, but when are we going to hear a **new** Timid Tiger song? Like.. 03. Miss Murray (Remake) or 04. My Girl’s A Rascal?
