Hands up, London and everywhere else this is pumping from PA systems the size of Berlin: Justice’s party’s in progress and anyone not willing to bump and grind against the posterior of a complete stranger may as well trundle, hunched and rejected, to the shadowy corners of this jumping club-from-anything. Your living room, transformed, within seconds.
Remixers in a not-so-long-ago past life – for everyone from Simian (yes, that song… Kanye, chill out already) to Britney Spears via the duo’s most obvious act of referential comparison, Daft Punk – the men known to their mothers as Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay have, with ‘D.A.N.C.E.’, produced a standalone slice of smiley something-dance indie-spaff greatness – you do the pigeonholing, I’m too busy having fun – to rival anything Thomas and Guy-Manuel have ever committed to wax… slash mp3 and everything else. Format schmormat: this rocks the set regardless of its casing.
Yeah, yeah, so it doesn’t really go anywhere, nor peak and trough like rock and roll music should, but it’s not rock and roll: this is alien funk from a future dimension, house music with one foot in the sewers of Paris and another aboard the cockpit of some fantastic starship. It’s music to lose yourself to at something o’ clock in the morning at some foreign festival or other, all language barriers down and grand unification successful via the medium of aural sex. I write from experience, here.
Come join me down the front, won’t you?
Watch the video already…
great song, great video
urgh
worst Justice song by a mile
Weirdo.
This is cheesy
as fuck. Nasty.
Love the entire album at the moment...
Although this isn't one of my highlights from it... Liking the addition of video's in single reviews though. Yip.
rubbish!
Every song they do
gets worse in my opinion. Nothing will ever beat Waters of Nazareth...
This
song is so good. Hearing it for the first time filled me with a giddyness I hadn't felt since I first heard Daft Punk's Discovery.
I love this song.
It's really fun to sing and dance to. I thought it was really odd at first, but after a few listens thought it was great.
..
Its not cheesey. Its fucking class.
What's with people dissing this tune?
It's TREMENDOUS.
i love it
basically
ugh
a voice that sounds like a 7 year old kid singing them lyrics? its fucking horrible
That's because they got a children choir or smethign to sing in it.
Fantastic tune.
Awesome video.
Somehow, I love this more the more I hear it
And I've heard it LOADS in my car already. It's so fucking disco and I'm totally gay for it
I just haven't
got tired of this fucking track. I've listened to it incesantly for weeks and it still gives me a jolt each time. It and it's glitch-sister B.E.A.T version are magnificent, and it's Justice's album, of all others, I'm looking forward to most this summer. Waters of Nazareth, Phantom, now this. Boys done good. Maybe they'll make Daft Punk remember what life was like before Human After All made them become a self parody.
Oh yeah...
two more things:
1: the video is amazingly bloody clever.
2: the single's not out till the 11th. Get it right, DiS!
meh
this is horrible.
and i normally like this stuff.
if you listen to this incessantly, you must have some sort of brain lesion by now. poor soul
