Serving Music Justice

RIYL: Daft Punk, LCD Soundsystem, Deadmau5

Justice,is an electronic/DJ duo made up of two Parisian guys,Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay. They started out as a huge internet sensation, as they are famous for remixing popular songs like MGMT's "Electric Feel" (my favorite justice song, I attached the video below)and the work of Britney Spears, Daft Punk, and Fatboy Slim. Then, as their covers gained popularity, they started making their own stuff and eventually got a record deal. I LOVE their album, Cross, I will attach links to it below.

Surprsigly, their most popular song,"D.A.N.C.E.", is not my favorite. For some reason, I really hate when little kids sing in songs. It's just a music pet peeve. It's just like...get out, I came here to listen to the band, not you juvenile amateurs. Anyways, here is a link to the song. I do really like the music in the song and the funky radio noises/ disco sounds.




Here are my favorite songs awww yeahhhh:


The beginning of this song is so ominous, like an evil dictator's theme song or something, I love it. Then the beat kicks in and things get lovely.This song starts off their Album, Cross, and I think it is the perfect intro into the album.



Here is my favorite remix I mentioned earlier, the cover of MGMT's "Electric Feel"




I actually like this version a lot better than the original, which is rare for me. The pitches of the voices have been altered a little, and I feel like the music has more substance in this version, like it's smoother and more interesting to listen too. There is a lot of fading in and out with the vocals, which I think is super cool.
