KASIO KRISTMAS TAKES RATT’S “ROUND AND ROUND,” UH, ROUND AND ROUND

8-bit remixes of songs aren’t exactly rare these days, as NES music seems to be all the rage amongst the youngins who weren’t even alive when NES was the baddest, hightest-tech system on earth, so it takes a lot for an electronic re-interpretation of a metal song to impress me. But Kasio Kristmas’ take on Ratt’s greatest hit “Round and Round” is definitely worth a listen. If you’re a fan of the original, of course. It’s actually not even 8-bit — it’s a full-on electronic version — but it takes Pearcy’s original vocal track, alters it, and places it on top of Kasio Kristmas’ own version of “Round and Round.” Most importantly, it’s really well done.

So check it out on Kasio Kristmas’ MySpace page. There’s a sweet Radiohead remix there for the listening as well. Buy “Round and Round” or the whole album on iTunes.
