The 20th of June saw the latest UK release from Brooklyn born MGMT. Electric feel is the the second single from the debut album Oracular Spectacular and I must confess, I am a fan. The debut single named Time To Pretend never really hit the right notes for me, it seemed like a dulled down version of the great klaxons. Electric Feel however has captured my interest once again, not just the original, but the equally impressive remix by Justice.
Just when I was begining to loose interest in the French duo, they demonstrate just why they are one of the most influential electronic artists of the past few years. I particulaly like this remix because the slow lyrics have been coupled with the typical sound of 'slappy bass' and heavy drum beat that Justice are well known for, not to mention the last 50 seconds! There has a been a radio ripped version floating arround for quite a while. I've been graced with the full version from a friend. I've had this amazing song on repeat and i hope you can see why:

I saw MGMT support Radiohead in Manchester 2 weeks ago, and was pleasantly surprised by a few songs-Electric Feel being one of them.
Having said that, the Justice remix just dominates the original. DOMINATES. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
