Recently, I've been recommended the band Dr. Dog on multiple occasions. Even though they seem to be receiving very little attention by prominent music sites, I decided to do a little digging and find out more about the band. And I was pleasantly surprised. I think its too often when bands try to imitate the greats in music history. Dr. Dog stays true to the roots of music and presents it with a modern appeal and avoids simply rehashing what was already achieved by classic songwriters like Lennon or McCartney.
You can preview the first track of the album here.
The Breeze - Dr. Dog
Beck's remix of one of their songs. Beck's choice to remix a classic rock-driven band is interesting. But it makes sense because his style deconstructs and merges together opposing genres. Take a listen.
The Girl (Beck Remix) - Dr. Dog
If still interested, take a listen to this track as well.
