Video Games (JLYMN RMX) - Lana Del Rey

Lana Del Rey is not a name that I allow to enter into my vocabulary, let alone is she a subject matter I would've ever considered typing into the blogosphere......until yesterday. Remix after remix after godforsaken remix, of  barely a handful of songs the girl has released (only officially as of today?) could easily have been considered the bain of my existence over the past few months. No amount of Damon Albarn, Jamie Woon, Balam Acab, or Clams Casino could convince me to understand why she deserves my attention.

While, yes I do have to admit to paying attention to her now (sort of), it's actually London based sound design student JLYMN (pronounced Jellyman) who's caught my eardrums. The glitched out, dubstep bass line maintains the downtempo sadness that I can only imagine was the true intention of the song in the first place.
