I've been waiting to finally get a hold of this single, as I've been loving The Rapture's recent album, Pieces Of The People We Love, more and more and this is one of the better songs on that. For real, these boys were slept on in 2006 big time. Grab the album now, or wait for a few more words this weekend when I dropped my top albums of 2006.

This single features three remixes to make this one a little more (non-indie kid) dancefloor ready. First up, New York's Prince Language drops a disco edit that sounds so right it's crazy. He adds these wonderful horns that brighten up the music tremendously, not what you'd expect from the dark, guitar driven sound of the band. Serge Santiago's re-edit takes a similar approach, extending the original, upping the percussion. It's a little too busy, especially in comparison to the Prince Language one. Finally, it wouldn't be a hot single without someone from Paris getting in on the action. Ed Banger's SebastiAn steps to the plate for this one, bringing another great remix with that punk electro sound Pound for Pound loves so much.

-Don't forget, People Don't Dance No More tonight at Element (Houston and Essex) with Druzzi from the Rapture spinning and much more. Check my post from yesterday for all the info. Check the NY Press' preview from today.

-Holy shit LA! Franki Chan starts 2007 off with a bang. Iheartcomix and Puma New Year Kick Off with Flosstradamus and Lazaro Casanova at the Short Stop



-ATL vs. NYC. Au Courant is a live fashion installation tonight at The Mark in Atlanta. My bol DJ DJ Dylan is spinning his electrocrunk all night. Beautiful Southern belles and bolles, amazing fashion, the best music. Be there.



-Finger On The Pulse tonight holding down Brooklyn at the East River Bar

-What's going on in the greatest city on Earth? The 51:51 bols have your Philadelphia weekend plans all laid out nice.

-Philly runs NYC as always. I'll be at the Plastic Little/Man Man show tonight at the Bowery Ballroom. It's sold-out, so check craig's list if you are desperate.
