Anyone have an idea when remixes for this are coming out? I've heard the original album version on the local Top 40 station a few times, and it's a catchy song with quirky lyrics you don't hear much of these days. I noticed DJ Strobe's mix was being played on iPartyRadio -- anyone know if there's a full remix package coming? And if so, where to buy it.

I've been listening to a fan made mix which is simply the original sped up with some beats from a couple of Deadmau5 songs. www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8k0oIyxTrY It's not too bad (the original is a very nice song, so how can you mess it up using the original?), but thanks for the heads up on the DJ Strobe mix, which is even better. I think he used the original too but mixed it up a bit more. |

Thanks for the heads up Michaelangelo.
I'm loving Strobe's mix and can't wait for an extended. I hope he does something a little more dramatic with a breakdown. This song deserves it.

I found the full DJ Strobe Mix (4:55) and it's pretty decent! He kept some of the synth layer from the original version, but took some liberties I didn't care for with changing some of the chords of the song. When you have a cute kitschy tune this brilliant and this successful, you don't mess with it - other than that it's great to get a DJ mixable version of this. I wish I had the acapella, I'd teach myself how to do original production just so I could remix this song =D

There's a Tommie Sunshine Edit (3:48) as well. Also good, since it also uses the original. Can't miss. I kinda think I like DJ Strobe's a little bit better though. Tommie's extra sound effects aren't the greatest and it really sounds more like just a sped up version and not much additional production at all. STILL, even if it's just the original sped up it's almost impossible to blow it. Such a great song. I am liking radio more than I have in about 15 years. |

oh dear - not good :( some of the chords you chose don't match the music at all, sorry This one is only slightly better. The production is smooth and the notes stay faithful to the original, but where are the verses?!?!? |

I'm pretty sure it's a bootleg, since there's no acapellas floating around of the song yet (which sucks when you do mashups live!). That'd explain the lack of verses. Either way I really like it, since it's got a nice housey feel and the last chorus is really neat after all the buildup.  |

There are 2 mixes coming from Steve Pitron & Max Sanna. Per Max on his Twitter - one is a "tech house" remix and the other is more of a "main room" remix. Can't wait to hear these!
In the meantime, there's a UK promo out with mixes by Marlow and Leo Zero. Both are more "dub step" than house. I'm intrigued!
1. Marlow Mix
2. Leo Zero Dub Mix
