For their current, free mini-album, The Edits, London duo Sam Sure & Giacomo ’repurpose’ existing songs: that is to say, remix, remake and reboot them with additional vocals and beats. While most tracks cover recent hits, the exception to the rule is the below edit of John Martyn‘s classic drawl Go Down Easy. The new lick of musical paint renders the smoothie smoother still, with sunkissed hip-hop vocals fitting in nicely. I reckon the quality of the original still shines most brightly, but the invention of this new version also dazzles.
