Song Spotlight: Lykke Li x Gold Panda

on April 15, 2011

Everyone, freak out. At least that's what I did at 6AM when I saw the tweets trickle in about Gold Panda's remix of "Sadness is a Blessing" by Lykke Li.

I clicked, I listened, I fawned. And now, I'm here to break my unintentional Autostraddle hiatus to share it with you.

Lykke Li - Sadness Is A Blessing (Gold Panda Remix) by Pretty Much Amazing

Gold Panda is a talented British producer whose debut album, Lucky Shiner, topped my listen of Favorite Albums of 2010. Add his organic, mellow dance touch to Swedish indie-singer Lykke Li's ironically upbeat downer from her new album, Wounded Rhymes, and the result is one of my favorite remixes of 2011.

thank you for giving this to me and in turn my tumblr that has been severely lame lately. I mean you can only reblog so much before you just feel like a loser.
