about this album
"Starlet" is the second single from the new Boy in Static album Candy Cigarette. The ambitious album version blends orchestral violas and full-hearted trashy drumming into a glorious pop anthem. The two remixes that follow are polar opposites. Freezepop's take is a pounding, dancefloor-ready gem that combines glossy Goldfrapp-style production with the charm of New Order's analog drum machines. Xela cleverly strips the track to its bare minimum, using short vocal samples to stitch together a slowly mutating Eno-esque soundscape. The single closes with an intimate performance on a Hammond organ, recorded for a special KEXP radio broadcast.
