LISTEN: TOLE COVER’S BRILLIANT POLE RIDERS DANCE MIX
Here’s how this all went down: QWOP & GIRP creator Bennett Foddy wrote up a lengthy post for the official PlayStation Blog, detailing his plans for updating Pole Riders for the Sportsfriends campaign, and, watching the above teaser video for about the millionth time, the 4/4 beat got my head bobbing just enough to think that there was an amazing full-length dance mix aching to come out of it.
And so, I said as much on Twitter, and then, just hours later, fellow Soulwax superfan Mark “Tole Cover” Hinog took up the challenge, and thus the mix below was born:
I basically couldn’t be happier with it, especially the bit where Frobisher Says artist Dick Hogg provides its percussive vocals, and it makes me wonder if we shouldn’t start doing remix contests more regularly… If anyone else feels like taking up the mantle, drop me a note!
