Neon Indian gave us something to be thankful for last week when he released not one, but two brand new remixes of the Grizzly Bear fave, “Cheerleader.”  The first one, aptly titled “Sega Genesis P-Orridge” mix, bathes the track in poppy synthy goodness, while the second mix, “Studio 6669” Remix, offers a more laid back approach.  Stream the Pitchfork-premiered tracks here, and if you’re in New York, you’re lucky enough to have 3 chances to catch the band around town this December.

About Neon Indian:
Neon Indian is the elusive new project from composer Alan Palomo (Ghosthustler, VEGA). Neon Indian delivers equal parts synthetic nostalgia, dreampop lullabies, and grinding guitar noise to create something eerier than the sum of its parts. Forged after a hazy winter gathering in Texas, the initial batch of tracks were the result of field recordings, record samples and a collection of bizarre synth sounds. After Palomo solicited the visual acrobatics of video artist Alicia Scardetta, the project successfully became a multimedia maelstrom. Orbiting around the themes of drug induced heartbreak, weary afternoons and lost chances, this music provides a lush soundtrack to the deadbeat exploits of teenage ennui. They’ve been compared to New Order, Future Bible Heroes, and most recently said to sound like a saw-wave cutting a Doobie Brothers’ song in half.  Neon Indian’s bedroom ballads have already forged debut LP Psychic Chasms [Lefse], which received the coveted Best New Music tag from Pitchfork.  Expect much more noise to be made by this fresh-faced crew in the coming months.
