Required Listening: Lorde – “Team” (White Sea Remix)

The arrival of Lorde has been covered to death at this point, and if you’re anything like me you’re beyond tired of hearing about how a teen from New Zealand is sick of throwing her hands up in the air. I get it, I really do.

That said, you absolutely need to hear the way White Sea have made “Team” their own. It’s just as soulful as the original, but with a sense of indie-meets-dance exploitation blended into the mix that makes the entire affair sound like the soundtrack to a modern John Hughes film. Sounds crazy, I know, but after you give the song a few moments of your time you’ll understand. You can stream the track, in full, below:

White Sea is the alter ego of M83’s Morgan Kibby. I don’t know if there are any additional plans for White Sea and Lorde to collaborate, but there should be. If you agree, comment below and let us know.

There are rumors online that Lorde is working on new material, but until the queen of apathetic teen boys’ fantasies confirms the news herself it’s just that – a rumor. We’ll bring you real updates on Lorde’s plans for the future as soon as new information becomes available.
