On a pair of new remixes, Echo Park bedroom popstars Superhumanoids give L.A.'s Local Natives the chillwave treatment.
The Supes (as we affectionately call them — we've made no attempts to hide our enthusiasm) take on two songs from Local Natives buzzing 2010 Frenchkiss Records debut, Gorilla Manor: “Shape Shifter,” and “Who Knows Who Cares”
No word on whether these remixes are of the official or bootleg variety, but we assume the former, since Superhumanoids will be opening for Local Natives on several U.K. dates in November.
