Claptone's album Closer was the next righteous step for the solo artist, featuring plenty of artistic development and making it feel like it followed a canon of sorts, given the artist's sound from past to present. The album was critically acclaimed through and through and certainly finds its way into sets to this day - it's impact is irreversible.
Claptone has set his mind on finding others to expand the concepts he's laid down. Pet Shop Boys were down for the task, soaking in what "Queen Of Ice" has to offer - a track off of this very album - and outputting a distinguished take on the piece.
Pet Shop Boys have their own sound that can be picked out of a lineup, that wavelength of energy was instilled in "Queen Of Ice (Pet Shop Boys Remix)," the boys colliding their world and Claptone's impeccably. The thumping percussion and deep house melody samples hits the spot and let the vocal impress with a whole different feel.
Claptone is taking off on tour in North America early this year, where you may have a chance to hear this very song, check out the dates below and don't miss out on the sensations that both Pet Shop Boys and Claptone bring to the table.
