Mathieu Santos, of Ra Ra Riot fame, employs the instrumental quirks of Delicate Steve on a remix for “I Can Hear The Trains Coming”. The end-product is a sugary-sweet pop anthem that might have found its home as the theme music for a 90s family sitcom. Santos’ smooth, stair-stepping vocals match well with Delicate Steve‘s wacky synth and and Caribbean drum-circle beats. Check out the remix and the original track below, the latter from Santos’ Massachusetts 2010 release on Barsuk. After the jump also check out the Ra Ra Riot/Delicate Steve tour dates.
