Passion Pit - Sleepyhead (Le Chev Remix)

Written by Claire Lobenfeld

Samples of "Genius Of Love" by Tom Tom Club (Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth of Talking Heads are two notable members of that outfit) have long made their way into pop and hip-hop track, from Mariah Carey's "Fantasy" to tracks by Public Enemy and Cam'ron*. When we first got our hands on Le Chev's rework of Passion Pit's longtime RCRD LBL jam "Sleepyhead", we knew that he had gotten some real magic into it. Without directly sampling "Genius Of Love", he's interwoven the same '80s dance club/R&B vibe, reminiscent of what we love about Tom Tom Club, but still totally his own. We've seen his adept refitting before on his version of Frankie Rose And The Outs' "Candy", so we're pretty psyched that he'll be coming out with his solo joint in early 2011 as Avan Lava.

(*That Cam song is called "Me, My Moms & Jimmy" and, yes, it does feature Mama Cam swapping verses with her son and Jim Jones.)
