Awolnation has recently released the new EP titled ‘Candy Pop’ – the release includes two new remixes of the title track by the artists Elohim and Flamingosis. “Elohim is so talented and a dear friend. I was honored that she wanted to do a remix of the song. And I recently became familiar with Flamingosis’ work, and I instantly became a fan. So, it was exciting to be able to have him put his spin on this new single,” says Awolnation on the artists who remixed ‘Candy Pop’.
Elohim adds: “I love working with honest authentic artists who know what they want and are also open to collaboration and sounds they wouldn’t normally turn to. Aaron is that. A wonderful friend and a joy to collaborate with. When I get calls from him asking if I want to participate on something it is always YES. As soon as I heard his vocal on candy pop I knew I wanted to dive in and dissect it. I had a lot of fun chopping this up and making this remix!”
“This was a fun tune for me to get out of my comfort zone and try some new things for this remix,” says Flamingosis. “I had no idea where I was going to go with this one, ended up making it into a wonky boom bap flip while letting the vocals glide on the beat. I had fun putting my own spin on it, and hope you guys dig it as well!”
‘Candy Pop’ also includes the previously released singles ’Freaking Me Out’ and ’We Are All Insane’. When EP was released, the music video completed the trilogy of videos directed by Eliot Charof. The videos take inspiration from classic film and paranoid fiction, revealing a dreamlike world that feels both futuristic and bygone, and have amassed over half a million views each.
