Dirty Projectors & Solange Knowles – CHAPTER 2

And the saga continues… As we told you a little while back, über-cool genre-straddler & member of the talented Knowles clan, Solange, did a cover of the stunning stunning amazing beautiful AWESOME track Stillness Is The Move by the equally stunning stunning amazing beautiful AWESOME Dirty Projectors! And so the whole indie world did rejoice, for there was a new poster girl in town, one advertising the wonders to be born from uniting the worlds of soul/r’n'b and alternative music… showcasing one of the new directions in which music seems to be heading. A direction I am SUPER excited about!

dirty projectors + solange

So I was even more excited to find that Chapter Two sees them performing the track together! The magical incident occurred at a party for the new Opening Ceremony store in New York, check it out:

Combining the original with Solange’s reworking of the song works a treat; the two versions together almost create an even bigger explosion of pure awesomeness. And check out the lungs on those ladies, my oh my. SIZZLIN!!

As if that wasn’t enough, they all went on to cover Groove Theory’s Tell Me… also included for your enjoyment!

The future will be… Chapter Three! Whoo, personally, I can’t wait.
