Sofi Tukker Benadryl remixes

TOKiMONSTA remixed Sofi Tukker's "Benadryl" (listen)

Pop duo Sofi Tukker released their debut album Treehouse earlier this year, and they’re set to wrap up the year with a remix EP of its single “Benadryl,” which is due out on New Year’s Eve (pre-order). It features reworks of the song by TOKiMONSTA (who is up against Sofi Tukker for the Best Dance/Electronic Album Grammy), Henri, Tommie Sunshine & SLATIN, and Kled Mone. The TOKiMONSTA remix premieres in this post.

TOKiMONSTA takes the previously more chilled-out song and gives it a grimier, bassier spin that makes it fit in perfectly with the LA beat scene that TOKiMONSTA hails from. It’s a great take on the song that’s worth hearing whether you already know and love the original or not. Here’s what Sofi Tukker tell us about it:

The first show we ever played, we were first of 3 opening for Jen (Tokimonsta)! Two years later we played a show together in Japan and had the best time getting to know her. It’s our favorite thing in the world to create with friends, so this remix came naturally! We did a remix for her “I Wish I Could” and she reimagined “Benadryl.” Basically we love her and we love this remix.

And TOKiMONSTA adds, “I love these two! Benadryl is a great song and I’m glad I got to put my spin on it.” Listen below.

Sofi Tukker and TOKiMONSTA both have New Year’s Eve shows, in San Diego and San Francisco, respectively. They both also have other dates, all of which are listed below.
