Download: Fool’s Gold + Mariah Carey “Surprise Emotions” (Wallpaper mash-up)

Eric Frederic of Wallpaper. dropped Mariah Carey’s “Emotions” into Fool’s Gold’s “Surprise Hotel” to create this little beauty, the first in a bi-weekly series of releases from Wallpaper.’s latest project, SiSTRS from different MiSTERS.

From the press release:

“When I first heard “Surprise Hotel,” I felt all these little thought bubbles effervescing in my brain. There is a lot to take in, on a musical level. The original vocal coats this exuberant track with a calm, peaceful beauty. So I started combing the universe for a vocal that seemed as wilin’ out as those guitar parts and roughly the same tempo and / or key. Turns out Mariah Carey’s “Emotions” is already in the exact same key (the relative minor) and dances atop the rhythm section like it was born to. This is the first segment of SiSTRS from different MiSTRS.” —Eric Frederic
