The Brooklyn synth-pop/electronic production duo Holy Ghost! have been one of the major players on DFA within the past few years and their most recent rendition of Drake's hit "Hold On, We're Going Home" proves why. Supercharging the track with a variation of funky beats, laid-back vocals and bending soundscapes Nick Millhiser and Alex Frankel look to reintroduce the song to the indie dance market their label and sound have facilitated for years.

Supported by a mix of visuals that tie together the duo's most recent music video, photos of Nick and Alex out on the town and live shots of the two performing, the song allows itself just enough time to fully develop it's unique style before coming to a close at four and a half minutes. With their sophomore album (Dynamics) released early last month Holy Ghost! have been touring across the states to support it, meaning if listeners manage to catch them live they have a chance to experience the cover live.
