Hear Sylvan Esso’s Synth-Forward Remix of the Postal Service’s ‘District Sleeps Alone Tonight’


Hear Sylvan Esso remix the Postal Service's single, "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight," which was originally on their 'Give Up' album.

The duo, which formed a decade after Give Up’s release and has tiptoed in the Postal Service’s footsteps with their approach to electropop and indie rock, has put a new spin on “The District Sleeps Alone Tonight.” Where the Postal Service’s original recording blended glitchy, lo-fi drum machine clapping and angelic vocals, Sylvan Esso’s remix leans more into the synths. The bands kicked off the tour last year in the States, commemorating the 20th, with dates at Madison Square Garden and the Hollywood Bowl, among other storied venues.
