Love Like A Sunset – Animal Collective Remix (Deakin’s Jam)
Words from Deakin / Animal Collective :
“This spring i was in Panama with Brian.
We were cramped into a van on a bumpy, winding central american road going a little too fast. Feeling a little edgy, I put on my headphones and listened to United and Alphabetical back to back. I watched passing fruit stands, a sweet central american dusk and memories of the massive schools of jelly fish, snapper, and trevally; the few dolphin and even the few bluefin tuna (too few) that brian and i had just had the joy of diving with the blend of all of these things put me at ease.
Phoenix has been a staple for all four of us since Dave and Noah brought home United from the record store they used to work at. One of the records that would get us through some of those long cross country tour drives, we’ve listened to phoenix’s jams many many times. We were all totally psyched to get asked to do this and it was super fun to work on it.
All the best to those dudes”

this is one of the most beautiful songs i’ve ever heard. can someone please tell me what deakin is singing?
Wow..I just can’t stop playing this song over and over again, it’s just so beautiful.. Does anyone know the lyrics of this song? I hear there are some lines that are not in Phoenix’s original lyrics, but I can’t really tell what it says.. can anyone help me please? thanks!
this song lifts my heart up to a place I never thought it could go.
Never stop making music Deakin, you are all so talented.
really blown away by this remix. the drawn out vocal harmonies touch deep! thanks a lot!!

Mais vous vous faites remixer de partout hihi
Ce remix sent bon le patchouli! Merci!

“Love Like a Sunset” describes this world, vividly.
Simply the best of both worlds…by far my favorite addition to the Wolfgang Remix Family. Thank you also for giving the most beautiful concert I have ever been to last night in ATLANTA. Really…I cried on the drive home. Phoenix and Crew, are definitely the hardest working men in show business. James Brown must have passed his spirit onto you. Everything was magic, down to the reflective white tape on your Fender Twin Reverbs. It was lovely getting to meet you all as well. Can’t thank you enough, take care !
hey thanks.
animal collectives associate john maus will play with chairlift supporting you on some dates, niceee
C’est fantastique. Merci!

C’est vraiment cool de faire faire des remix comme ça sérieux. Encore ! ^^
Art work?
[...] MP3: Phoenix – Love Like a Sunset (Animal Collective’s Deakin’s Jam) Des sowieso bereits epischen Phoenix-Songs »Love Like a Sunset« nahm sich jüngst Josh »Deakin« Dibb an. Der Animal-Collective-Remix greift dabei das Grundprinzip der Vorlage auf und bewahrt dem Stück seine Krautigkeit – vielleicht sogar eine Schippe zu sehr. [...]

Thanks for the remixes once again.
And please keep them coming, I love getting spoiled by you guys.

Sweet. I think getting other artist to remix your work is one of the coolest things you can do. It gives us fans a different approach to your music (and theirs for that matter). More please. Also, come back to Boston.
