Ancient Mermaids brings us its Moondust remix EP featuring five diverse remixes, the original, and an updated VIP. The "Moondust" VIP juxtaposes booming 808s with soft and melodic vocal samples, all against the lush backdrop of utterly enchanting organ riffs. The second build leads us into a drop with a whip-smart broken beat allowing for us to release our lover’s hands momentarily and wiggle some serious booty.
Like an alien love song, the VIP uses rhythm to remind us how love can be at once gentle, yet also rough and vigorous at times. If you like soft, chill, moody trap, this track is for you. This "Moondust" VIP will fit nicely on any playlist that includes artists like Odesza, Hippie Sabotage, Hermitude, and Coyote Kisses.
The duo, which splits its time between Detroit and LA, gets a Funkadelphia x The Dankles release on March 3rd for the EP, which features remixes from Trillwax, Bentone, Bandit, and more, and artwork by Spencer Haley.
