I am not sure where this came from, or why Pete Rock chose to take part in such a project, but this is dope! Yo La Tengo, a fantastic indie band out of New Jersey dropped their album, Popular Music last year. The first song on that album is called “Here To Fall”, and today we get to hear Pete Rock’s remix of that. Along with sampling and tricking out the song, he also decides to lay down some bars. I can’t really say that Mr. Rock is one with words, but he did an excellent job of transforming this rock track into an eerie hip-hop landscape. This song will be available on iTunes along with the rest of the Here To Fall Remixes EP, due out June 8th via Matador. Word has it that the EP will also include remixes from De La Soul and RJD2. That is what I am talking about!
