Sneaky Sound System – ‘When We Were Young’ (Dept remix) (taken down by artist request)
A lot of people are surprised to find that Sneaky Sound System actually put on a good live show. Amongst all that electronic production, cut up vocals and synthesisers, it’s easy to forget that the members of the band actually come from live band backgrounds, especially the impressive vocalist Connie Mitchell who were playing for the band Primary in the late 90s. Some people are surprised that I’m actually a fan of this band, but as you know by now I love a good pop song. This track is taken from SSS’s second album, and it’s one of the remixes to come out of this second single. It’s done by Sydney remixing duo Dept, one half of which is Sydney’s best known partyboy PhDJ.

That remix is pretty smashing, but still not a patch on the actual original version. That chorus, those verses, that bonkers operatic finish; one of the most rewarding Australian pop songs all year and the best from the album. I’m incredibly happy to hear it’s the next single.
