Tunng cover 'The Pioneers' in Milano
In January 2006, experimental folk band, Tunng, released their cover of 'The Pioneers' - a haunting, atmospheric take on the original track which was featured in The O.C. (Season 3, Episode 24 - The Man of the Year, fact fans). Download it here (courtesy of Visions and Revisions).
Below is a video of Tunng performing the cover at their recent gig in Milano...check out the maraca action.

Sunday Special
Here're two new 'Sunday' remixes for your aural joy, of which the Junkie XL remix is most worth downloading (it's essentially a souped up version of the original track). On the other hand, DiskJokke does away with most elements of Bloc Party's recording, juxtaposing Kele's vocals over an impressive electrobeat. Thanks to the Vice Records MP3 Blog for the tracks!
