Caravan Palace – Raccoons (Don Letts & Gaudi Remix)

Caravan Palace’s “Raccoons (Don Letts & Gaudi Remix)” is a colorful and unique remake of the original tune that combines old dub and reggae sounds with modern dance music. The remix opens with an 80s-inspired synth sound that rapidly fades away, allowing the track’s core to take center stage. What follows is a lush mosaic of dub and reggae sounds, supported by a pulsing dance beat that drives the whole composition. The emphasis on the beat is undeniable, as it becomes the main feature of the remix, transforming the tune into a vibrant dance floor hit. The original dub vocals add a touch of psychedelic flair, resulting in a surreal, theatrical experience that draws the audience in. Additional studio effects are  incorporated into the mix, increasing the groovy vibe and adding depth to the sound. What actually distinguishes this remix is its perfect combination of old-school dub sounds and current dance production. Don Letts and Gaudi have given the track new life, transforming it into a dance music smash that sounds  nostalgic and innovative. The end result is a remix that honors dub’s roots while still stretching the boundaries of modern electronic music.
