DJ Mehdi + Chromeo + Justice vs Simian
posted by TravisDude, I was listening to this track tonight. Enjoying it. Then it stopped and the music continued. Really, a supersonic clicking noise continued. I walked into the living room and there was a bat hanging out under the sofa. Apparently he liked the tune too and was singing along.
Oh bats! Justice on Vice. Chromeo on an Ed Banger record. It’s like when neighboring schools get together for a mixer. Like the last few Ed Banger releases, nothing totally groundbreaking here. Don’t expect to be like Justified up. Mehdi has created a harmless dance track to fill your night.

Of course, while we’re on the subject of Ed Banger, the night wouldn’t be complete without yet another rehash of Simian’s “Never Be Alone.” This time around they’re calling it “We Are Your Friends”… paying homage to the album it originally came from. Ok guys, even though it’s starting to get totally played out, this track still sounds fresh. I don’t know if I’ll ever really tire of it… no matter how many times it is repackaged, reshaped, whatever. I’m starting to forget what Summer was without “Never Be Alone.” Maybe that’s the point.
I know Justice is already big to most of you… but I feel like we’re about to see some kind of LCD Soundsystem size explosion. Like… that same feeling circa 2003-4 right before James Murphy’s head exploded. Coming soon to an Abercrombie & Fitch near you:
