Dave Sitek

"With A Girl Like You" (Troggs Cover) (Stream)

Considering he's the main sound sculptor in TV on the Radio, I guess it'd be foolish to expect anything other than dense production, layered horns, and an overall sonic murkiness from Dave Sitek. Sitek delivers that in his contribution to the Dark Was The Night compilation--a TV on the Radio-esque cover of the Troggs' "With A Girl Like You." Sitek doesn't have the twin vocals of Kyp Malone and Tunde Adebimpe to rely on here, so he uses his own husky baritone. 

 

The track is only streaming today (February 4), so go here to have a listen.

That's pretty great. This is his solo debut, right?

Yeah I think so. I looked around for any other solo Sitek, and I think this is it. Although the Antibalas horns are on this, I think.
