What happens when you lock German DJ buddies in a room for 2 days and give them a track from an album that's not to be released until mid-fall? The answer is the title of this post, and that post title, in turn, is a most staccato-ey mix that you need to have in your life and in your playlist.


The Gossip's album, Music For Men, is now apparently not seeing a release date until October, which frankly, I believe hurts the chance of any major record sales, seeing as how most wise netsurfers found the album over the past 2 weeks. As an aside, we heard the album, and thought not so highly of it, but did commend it's yet again, sense of accessibility and listenability, even if track to track sounds a bit "same-ish."*

So when I got MMMatthias vs dAi's mix of their track, 8th Wonder, I went back and listened to the original song first to get a sense of what I was in for. Little did I know that these two talented lads would throw the vocals of Beth Ditto in a blender, chop it on up, and serve us the most delicious puree of a mix we could ever hope to drink in!

* PS - After many many listens through the album, I might be considering myself a convert now. Stay tuned...
