Don’t Let Me Down (Dammit)
Gramatik: The trouble with covering the Beatles is the frequency of the damn thing. When Paul McCartney woke up from his poetic dream fifty years ago and wrote Yesterday, I doubt he forsaw the twenty two hundred covers to follow it. So, what has Gramatik done with the Beatles, completely deconstructed them. But in a good way, the way that a Beatles enthusiast and a dirty Dub-kid can enjoy. Basically, Gramatik pulls it off because he didn’t fuck with the Beatles too much. He keeps their contribution minimal, then layers a supreme thickness- Enter Slovenia: from classical and hip-hop to blues to jazz to mac truck to dropped dubstep to mdmaximum. Enjoy.
