Hear Kanye West, Jeremih, And TNGHT Reinterpreted By A String Ensemble

1.

In a nearly hour long BBC Radio 1 special, DJ Benji B teamed up with writer and composer Grant Windsor (who’s vibing hard to Benji’s selection) and a string ensemble to reinterpret a variety of dance music and hip-hop tracks. While Benji B mixed from a glass box, the musicians added new layers to some of 2012’s biggest tracks, including TNGHT‘s “Higher Ground,” G.O.O.D.’s “Clique,” and Jeremih‘s “Fuck U All The Time,” as well as some classics from Ossie, Bok Bok, James Blake and Radiohead. Check out the full tracklist and watch this highly successful mix of electronic and organic music below.
