Caravan Palace is a French band known for their unique blend of electronic and swing music. Their new album, *Gangbusters Melody Club*, is their most dance-friendly record yet. One of the tracks from this album, “Raccoons,” has received a new twist thanks to a remix by two famous artists: Gaudi and Don Letts.
Gaudi is a Grammy-nominated producer who has worked with big names like Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry and Groove Armada. He’s known for creating catchy and powerful music that mixes different genres. Don Letts is another impressive artist with a Grammy win. He’s famous for his work with The Clash and Big Audio Dynamite, and he’s also known for introducing reggae music to the punk scene.
Gaudi and Letts started collaborating when Gaudi produced Letts’ solo album, *Outta Sync*, in 2023. Their work together was so successful that they decided to keep working as a duo. They have since remixed tracks for other artists like EMF and UB40. Now, they have taken on the challenge of remixing Caravan Palace’s “Raccoons.”
This remix is a special treat for fans. It was released on August 8th, just before Caravan Palace performed at the Boomtown Festival. The remix brings a reggae and dub feel to the original track, adding a new layer of rhythm and groove. Gaudi and Letts’s version of “Raccoons” gives the song a fresh and exciting sound that blends their styles with Caravan Palace’s unique electronic swing.
Overall, this remix is a great example of how artists can reinvent a song by adding their own touch. With summer festivals and an autumn tour lined up, Caravan Palace and their new remix are sure to keep listeners dancing and entertained.
