You hopefully already know Shakes (not to be confused with The Shakes), and this is just a friendly reminder and not an introduction. At the very least, you probably already know their spectacular “Fa-Fa-Fa” remix… right?

“Sister Self Doubt” is one of those brilliant-in-a-post-LCD-Soundsystem type tracks, like total guitar driven dance music that hopefully we won’t be tired of anytime soon. This track sounds like a floor ready Rapture remix but like, um, it’s straight up instead.

Hopefully for Shakes sake, they won’t get lumped into or limited by any of that New Rave nonsense. Total tangent but speaking of New Rave: how surprising is that Klaxons album? I’m not sure the Klaxons are worth a full post anymore, but maybe they’re not a one trick pony after all.

“Fa-Fa-Fa” is still like the greatest song ever. I could listen to it a million times over times fifty. There’s been pure love for the Shakes version too since it first dropped — though I’m not convinced it trumps Superstar’s mix. Good stuff:
