New! From – Fight For Your Right (Beastie Boys Cover)

If you’ve been coming to P&P for a while, then you’re probably familiar with the band From. If you are familiar, you probably know to expect something creative and unique from them, but I bet that little imagination of yours never cooked up something like this.

It’s both intimidating and fun to take on the Beastie Boys, so we made sure our version is very different from the original. It’s in French, for one. We replaced the Deep Purple-style guitar riff with a New Order sound, layered a fuzzed out synth on the 4/4 beat of an 808 kick drum, threw in samples of a Peruvian flute and a cello, and invited an all-girl choir to join in for the chorus.
