More fab cowbell-intensive remakes from hot NYC producers.
The DFA - The DFA Remixes: Chapter TwoPosted by Tim Karan on 28-Feb-07 @ 05:12 PM
[4/5] The DFA production team-James Murphy and Tim Goldsworthy-ironically defy their Death From Above moniker by providing life from below to others' tracks. The DFA Remixes: Chapter Two is the second such disc this year from the duo, and it provides yet more polyrhythmic enhancement that is the DFA's signature stamp. They favor stretching songs to the brink of their breaking point, with squelchy Roland 303 bass lines, robust cowbell clanking, crisp handclaps and propulsive beats motoring things pell-mell to the horizon line.
Chapter Two boasts more dance-music artists than the first volume did, which allows greater leeway for the DFA to build glitteringly gritty club epics that don't stop till you get enough. Artists like Junior Senior, Goldfrapp, N.E.R.D., and even ye olde Nine Inch Nails benefit mightily from the DFA's discofunkadelic processing. So will you. (DFA/ASTRALWERKS) Dave Segal
