Justice

September 4, 2008 at 6:40 pm (Justice, Klaxons, MGMT, Remix) ()

The French Electronica duo have had “the buzz” for a couple of years now, but they are still creating fantastic music via their legendary remixes. Their Electric Feel remix has been stuck in the Hype Machine popular page for two months. Though I do not believe that particular one deserves that much attention because it is very similar to the original, it is still pretty cool. They basically just crank up the bass, and why change it anyway? Klaxons are up next, with Justice basically ripping out the lyrics of As Above, So Below and forcing them into a groove machine a la 80s era, with lots of keytar power. Probably their best remix to date, unless the infamous When The Sun Goes Down remix is really by them.

Their debut album, †, is also quite great with the fantastic opener, Genesis, starting with the hard-hitting low synth and dramatic drums. Moving into their radio friendly pop hit, D.A.N.C.E, which combines Jackson Five style singing and an awesome funk bass line. My highlight is the itchy Stress, which does what it says on the box, but in a really good way. Justice have definately pushed me into the boundries of House, with their mix of sythns, electronica, rock-influence and amazing light shows.
