DFA Remixes

topic posted Fri, March 12, 2004 - 11:52 AM by  Drew
So, today, I found a DFA remix that I didn't already have, so I'm wondering if there are more out there that I don't know about... Here's what I've found:

Chromeo - Destination Overdrive
Daft Punk - Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger
Dennis Taylor - Smile
Fischerspooner - Emerge
Floetry - Gettin' Late
Junior Senior - Shake Your Coconuts
Le Tigre - Deceptacon
Mariah Carey - Heartbreak
Metro Area - Orange Alert
Radio 4 - Dance to the Underground
The Rapture - Sister Saviour
Unkle - In a State

I've left out all the LCD Soundsystem, Black Dice, etc from their label... their production work, in other words... and I know there's a new N.E.R.D. remix out there, but I haven't found it yet...

Anything else?

    You are hardcore, there are a few on here I didn't even know about.

    Is the Mariah Carey thing really them?

    I remember searching once and seeing an Usher DFA remix. I know nothing about.

    The N.E.R.D. mix is good. I heard it on xfm. I think it was just released.

    Ok, this is so wrong. I just had to find out about the Mariah DFA thing, so I did a search and found some house dj mix, with it on there. I'm listening to it right now. I don't know that I've ever actually heard a Mariah Carey song, ugh. It's also a Def Leppard cover. Horrible.

      I'm lame....I really, really like the Mariah Carey one. It totally subdues her histrionics and is really pretty.

      But is it actually DFA? I can't seem to find a definitive answer....

      Does anyone else get irritated when you've gone to so much trouble to collect this stuff, then they just put it all out as a big collection (not that I won't buy it)?

        I don't really, since you've already gotten it all first and before a lot of people. and assuming you have it on the vinyl, it's much cooler. a few things I have on both vinyl and CD, and I think CD collections are cool for listening to and ripping.

        I have a lot of Gigolo vinyl going back to 2000, '97 actually but started buying it in '00 when I got a turntable. I was maybe a little annoyed when they started putting out CD comps, but I already had it and had other music to buy anyway.

        also I think people who actually collect music, crate-dig, etc. have a lot more fun with it than people who just buy a compilation a year(s) later.

        or that's what I tell myself anyway!

        It all comes home to roost when I play clubs and parties that don't have CD players; which is every party and club I've played in the last two years except for one.
