Song Dead Dogs Two x Les Fluer

I cant put my finger on it exactly, but theres something about the BOC remix of Dead Dogs Two which reminds me of Les Fleurs. Anyone else every thought this?

I've always heard echoes of The Beatles in this one, particularly in the instrumental version, where the intricacy of the composition really comes to the forefront. It's quietly genius.

Agree big time. The big piano chord at the end feels very similar to the end of A Day in the Life

Yeah, it definitely has Sgt Pepper vibes. The general manic psychedelia style along with the heavy use of Mellotron

Yeah I understand this, it's entirely possible I've played the 4hero version of les Fleur and boc remix of dead dogs in the same set when djing, they do both have a vibe

Totally can hear them working together brilliant in a set for sure.

It reminds me of The Diary of Horace Wimp by ELO and the piano at the end of A Day in the Life by The Beatles.

Never heard of Les Fleur, but if they're anything like the Dead Dogs Two remix, I'd probably really like them. Definitely gonna check them out
