Le Tigre - "Deceptacon (DFA Remix)"

The recent DFA compilation DFA Remixes: Chapter One definitely deserves the high speaking reviews it's been recieving all over the place. To speak simply, I think just about every track on the compilation is probably ten times better than the originals, in my opinion. Here's one of my favorites, DFA's early remix of Le Tigre's "Deceptacon."

[MP3]: Le Tigre :: Deceptacon (DFA Remix)
I've always seen this song as a song that couldn't possibly be more infectious or dancable, but clearly, I've always been wrong. DFA slowed it down a bit, though the vocals appear to still be at the same pace, the time signature is pretty drastically changed. Handclaps and biting synths fill up the majority of the song, which I'm much much more dancable than the original, though you really don't want to see proof, trust me.
