Get All Up And Dance Now/w/w/w/w

Mr. Oizo “Gay Dentists”

When I hear this song, I picture someone with an enormous cartoon mallet trying to smash the abstract notion of Basement Jaxx circa Remedy. But being abstract, the Jaxx track has no solid form, so when the mallet makes contact, it slips right through, as if the song were a glob of mercury. This just frustrates the mallet-wielder, and so they just keep swinging, and the music keeps dodging the impact, or shape-shifting. The result is a piece of music that feels restless, nimble, sleek, and more than a little bit silly, like a dance music version of a Roadrunner short.

Buy it from Beatport.
