Lana Del Rey - Young & Beautiful (Hizen Edit)

Keeping the weekend's warmth running into the new week, East Lansing's Hizen delivers a dazzling take on Lana Del Rey classic "Young & Beautiful." Once again recasting a pop sensation in his neon poolside style, Hizen shows that Lana's retro feel can work within the aesthetics of the 80s. As though ripped from a John Hughes film, the new bright and bubbly synth bed somehow works wonders against LDR's haunting, melancholic delivery. Just as her vocals begin to reveal their dark nature, the synths pick up steam and overcome any somber shadow the lyrics may cast. In fact, this new bed ensures "Young & Beautiful" remains young and beautiful. There's no more fear of decay or the fleeting nature of life itself, but rather it's become an in-the-moment inspiration to smile and celebrate the small things. One of several enchanting Hizen edits, you can enjoy "Young & Beautiful" below and find more here.
