How to Dress Well Covers Elite Gymnastics and Vice Versa

Pop quiz: Who remembers those dual EPs from Elite Gymnastics? Y'know, the ones that dropped in July? And what about How to Dress Well's Just Once EP? Of course, you all do.

Well, How to Dress Well decided to cover the Elite G'z ("Here in Heaven") and the hip duo returned the favour by remixing "Suicide Dream 2." Both tracks feature How to Dress Well's ethereal vocals and while the cover is expectedly haunting, the remix adds some much-appreciated pep. Friends helping out friends, you guys.

MP3s: A Pylon Cover + Remix + Favourite

In 2008, I got my hand's on Pylon's Gyrate LP for the first time. As a big B-52's fan, I was pretty blown away by the New Wave, art-rock on display and heard how big an influence Pylon had on Fred Schneider and co. (not to mention the rest of Athens, GA).

I (obviously) still spin the record to get my dance-pop kick, so I was pleased to learn of the new single DFA put out: a double-a-side cover by Deerhunter and remix from Calvinist. Both are natch and as a bonus, I'm hosting a favourite Pylon jam, "Feast on My Heart."

MP3: Bon Iver - "I Can’t Make You Love Me/Nick of Time"

I haven't been able to comment at-length on the beautiful new Bon Iver record, Bon Iver, Bon Iver, but it seems if you have a pulse and internet access, you've already read about its expansive greatness.

While I'm still putting together my review, people are clamoring for more Justin Vernon and their prayers were answered the other day when "I Can’t Make You Love Me / Nick of Time" popped up online.

The track, a two-part Bonnie Raitt medley/cover, is the b-side to Bon Iver's "Calgary" single. You've probably already heard it on your friend's Tumblr, but now you can take the MP3 with you. EDIT:// The links were broken, but they've been fixed. Download away.

I can't make you love me if you don't / I can't make your heart feel something it won't
