Portugal The. Man emerged from an unusually quiet period last year with some new songs and news of a new album that will come later this year. The song “Feel It Still” has been a pretty sizable hit for the group, and you know that’s true when an electronic producer like Lido takes a stab at a remix.
The minimalist take on the track highlights the killer falsetto vocals of John Baldwin Gourley, a funkier track than usual from the Alaska-born band.
The Norwegian producer Lido has previously lent his remix skills to memorable tracks from Kanye West, BANKS, Alison Wonderland, and several others. His own record EVERYTHING from last year was a solid effort worth checking out.
We caught Portugal. The Man just this past Friday at Shaky Knees Fest and were blown away by their set, which had one of the largest turnouts of the weekend. Expect their upcoming record to be another climb up the ladder for the band. We’ve seen them blow away Los Angeles crowds at the Troubadour and Club Bahia — catch them at the Hollywood Palladium on July 29. They also have slots at this year’s Bonnaroo and Austin City Limits.
