that article is the best thing i’ve read on pitchfork in quite a long time. well worth your a read. and it reminded me how hilariously great that remix of “got ’til it’s gone” is.
I’m on it, top tip – ace stuff!
Listening to “Safety Dance”…
It’s definitely a keeper…I think I would have to be in one of those moods to hear it however.
