As I said it before, not impressed with this single but the remixes are pretty awesome. Here’s a remix by DFA’s Juan MacLean & if you missed Fenech-Soler’s go here.

Now, I’m gonna be honest with you, I didn’t love Marina & the Diamonds’ new single “Hollywood”. If you were a bit disappointed too, you’ll change your mind when you listen to this remix by UK’s Fenech-Soler.

“Hollywood” follows “Mowgli’s Road” & it’s the lead single from her debut album The Family Jewels. It’ll be released on February 1st (UK), & the full-length 15 days later.

It’s been a crazy few months for the 23-year old Welsh/Greek Marina Diamond. After releasing her debut single “Obsessions” and The Crown Jewels EP through upstart NY indie label Neon Gold Records earlier this year, Marina & The Diamonds is pleased to release her debut single “Mowgli’s Road” via 679/Atlantic Records in the UK.

Originally included on the “Obsessions” single release, Mowgli’s has been re-worked for this release with production credits from Liam Howe. From the opening “cuckoo” you’re lead into a playfully dark musical landscape that fuses The Jungle Book with Kate Bush. Theatrics & funny voices aside, this song is a pure pop classic that demonstrates Marina’s unique lyricism & her mastery of a catchy chorus.

Marina mentions some of the reasons behind her choice to release “Mowgli’s Road”: “After playing around 27 festival dates this summer, “Mowgli’s” was definitely one of the crowd favourites and it is 100% representative of me as an artist, an individual and a creative spirit”. She goes on to say: “The song is inspired by personal experiences of trying to forge my own artistic identity within music”.

“Mowgli’s Road” has been remixed by a whole host of acts/DJs including Mille, Phenomenal Handclap Band, Russ Chimes & Steve. Multi-membered pop sensation Gaggle have also recorded their own cover.

Here are a couple of them:
