[RMX] RAC Maury remixes Death Cab For Cutie, The Static Jacks, and Clubfeet

some boys are filling the hole

RAC enthusiasts should know that an RAC Mix means collective leader Andre Anjos did the magic, while an RAC Maury Mix means that production whiz and Ra Ra Riot sound guy Andre Maury carved the audio gold. Anjos definitely does most of the heavy lifting at RAC HQ and, since many may not know there is anyone else involved, gets most of the praise. Well, today it’s time to take a moment and appreciate the under-sung hero of everyone’s favorite remix collective. Andrew Maury, will you please stand up.

Ok, fine, don’t stand. But can you provide us with three recent remixes for us to massage our weary ears with? OK, cool. Thanks.

Death Cab for Cutie – Some Boys [RAC Maury Mix] by Death Cab for Cutie

Let’s not dwell on the news that Ben & Zooey are no more, the man made “Some Boys” while married to that indie-babe and RAC Maury dropped his signature crunchy bass licks right into its funk center, giving the notoriously morose band a much needed pep infusion. Crank it up, Benny boy! It gets better.

♫ The Static Jacks – Into The Sun (RAC Maury Mix)

Besides remixing, Maury gets his production on with bands like Ra Ra Riot, Kisses, and New Jersey’s The Static Jacks. This jam showcases exactly the kind of kinetic energy that Maury conjures with his jams. Hard not to find yourself moving along.

♫ Clubfeet – Last Words (RAC Maury Mix)

I have no idea who Clubfeet are but nothing like an RAC-family mix to put them on my radar.
