#songoftheday = PANIC! AT THE DISCO: “VICTORIOUS” (RAC MIX)

RAC has been one of my favorite remixers for ages now.  His versions of Lana Del Rey’s “Blue Jeans” and Katy Perry’s “This is How We Do” are easily as good as the originals.  His version of Foster The People’s “Houdini” is better than the original.  I could go on and on.  Well, now we have his take on Panic! At The Disco’s “Victorious.”  As usual, he hasn’t toyed with the song’s basic layout, but he’s subtracted the guitars and added bits of bass guitar, which he likely played himself because he’s an excellent bassist, along with a whole lot of electronic beats and blips.  It’s not as catchy as the original, more of a subtle take on the song that could take a few listens to appreciate, but once you’ve heard it a few times you’ll be digging the heck out of it.
