Daily Doses: Coma Cinema “Her Sinking Sun” Kumon Plaza Remix (2010)

Kumon Plaza’s back!

Dylan Khotin-Foote, the young genius behind Canda’s Kumon Plaza, was most recently featured on Dead As Digital as one half of Gay Boiz. Here he goes from the acoustic beauty of that track back to his electronic roots with an apocalyptic remix of Coma Cinema’s brilliant “Her Sinking Sun”.

Changing instrumentation behind a cover as emotionally charged as this one without losing the feel is always difficult, but here that challenge is met impressively. Opening by taking the low-key Casiotone intro and replacing it with a driving synth bass hook, the track builds flawlessly from there with just the right amount of synth color and vocal changes. Khotin-Foote’s deft touch throughout this remix scream of a love and respect for the original artists that’s beautiful to see.

I rarely post remixes, but if they were all this good, that would quickly change.
