My Medicine

The 1975 never really fails to amaze me. Every track they create is truly ethereal. I cannot even begin to express how I felt the first time I heard Medicine. It is, indeed, possible to have overwhelming feelings when you hear a song, even for the first time.

Medicine—a new track from the British rock band—is part of the brand new soundtrack for Nicolas Winding Refn's Drive (2011). The Radio 1 Rescores Drive project was curated by DJ Zane Lowe, and premiered last October 30 on BBC Three.



I love Drive and its original soundtrack. So I'm not exactly thrilled about this project. However, of course, [mainly] because of The 1975 and other amazing bands who collaborated with Lowe, I am still hopeful to watch the re-scored version of the film. Besides, the creation of Medicine is good enough proof and reason to believe that Lowe means well.

Other artists who were featured in the film were Eric Prydz, Chvrches (Get Away), Jon Hopkins, Laura Mvula, Bring Me The Horizon (Don't Look Down), Foals (Howl), The Neighbourhood (Shannon), SBTRKT, Banks, Baauer (Hammer Time), Bastille (The Driver), and ZZC's Simon Neil (To The Bone).

Right now, I am just so in love with Medicine.
