Frank Ocean's minimal "Godspeed" is transformed with some tasteful percussive additions.

Frank Ocean's Blond(e) is an incredibly skeletal album. Drums and grooves are few and far between, leaving for some room for re-envisioning. dvsn have shared their remix of "Godspeed," which is as minimal as it get on the LP, introducing a prominent drum track, finding the percussive pockets of the song. It's a tough thing to do tastefully, but dvsn make sure not to go overboard, complimenting rather than overriding the original sounds of the song. 

This remix follows the release of the duo's new track, "Dear Summer Sixteen," premiered on OVO Sound Radio over the weekend. Listen to it here.

Quotable Lyrics:
This love will keep us through blinding of the eyes
Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind
It's 'til it's time we die
This love will keep us through blinding of the eyes
Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind
