Weekly Tuesday Track: Little Dragon - Twice (2007)

A day late I know, but better lat than never. Little Dragon is a music group hailing from Sweden, fronted by singer Yukimi Nagano. Their music can best be described as a soul/trip-hop mashup, one that works out amazingly well. Think of a wonderful indie vocalist over some pretty dope hip-hop beats, and that's exactly what you get with Little Dragon.

Twice is one of their most famous songs, being one of their first singles released for their eponymous debut. The video is a little weird -- I'll admit -- but the music is beautiful and dope at the same time. Check out the video and link below. 

Plus, as an added bonus (since I felt bad for leaving y'all hanging yesterday), I'll include a remix by my favorite producer Freddie Joachim of the same song. Almost as dope as the original.

QQQ1 - Quido's Quintessential Quarterly
