Download: Van She - "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" (Holy Ghost! Remix)
Not too long ago we prescribed you with Van She's cover of the Blue Oyster Cult classic, "(Don't Fear) The Reaper". But if that fever still persists then we highly recommend that it's about time for your second dosage, in the form of a Holy Ghost! remix of the very same track. As if the original wasn't enough, Holy Ghost! do what they do best and take team Van She's effort and make it their own.
Rumour of the day/week/month: James Murphy wouldn't let Holy Ghost! within an inch of the precious DFA cowbell, so he took a 'personal day and trekked to their studio in Paris to play it himself.

Download: Van She - "(Don't Fear) The Reaper"
We've got a fever, and the only prescription is more Van She. While the latest release from Bacardi's B-Live Bat Box doesn't feature any cowbell, Van She's cover of the Blue Oyster Cult classic "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" is nothing short of banging. The Van She lads already did a killer job re-working Groove Armada's "Drop The Tough" earlier this year for B-Live, so when they wanted to take on the Reaper - who could honestly stop them?

Van She
Van She are a Sydney four-piece who bridge the musical gap between boldly adventurous shoegaze and danceable glint disco. The band are known to step off the stage and into the booth, twiddling knobs under their DJ guise of Van She Tech and remixing tracks by the likes of Daft Punk, Ladyhawke and Feist. Their 2008 debut album, V, received the royal Tech treatment and was remixed and re-released by the band, fittingly titled Ze Vemixes.
