Miguel x Physical Therapy: Advanced Hopes

 

So Miguel's "Sure Thing" has been one of my favorite jams for a few months now. I first became aware of Miguel watching BET in a place where that was my only access to pop music. His video for "All I Want is You" transfixed me with it's smokey soul sound. It reminded me a bit of Burial. Which is not something you expect from 106 & Park. Also I really liked how he bit his lip and made curvy hand motions in place of saying "that ass." Watch and see, it's pretty awesome. Anyhow, "Sure Thing" is maybe even better, with it's screwed-down vocal hook and insanely catchy melodies. It's a hopeful, positive love song. Offering some true love. Yesterday, ADVANCED favorite Physical Therapy posted this sick sped-up remix. He put some latin flavor in there...it sounds like he dropped the whole song inside of a maraca. Like everything Physical Therapy touches it's dope, ethereal and totally danceable. Check and download below.

And an official remix featuring Pusha-T of the Clipse who still sounds cold and menacing but is in an uncharacteristicly lovey mood:
