Remixes Chapter One – Dfa

Label: Dfa/Emi

The DFA and their press-folks continue to impress upon us the significance of the DFA. You all should know the name by now. Tim Goldsworthy. James Murphy. Britney. Janet Jackson. Self-contained dance, remix unit based in Manhattan and almost single-handedly responsible for providing the cutting-edge for anything remotely post-punk or Rapture oriented. Well here they are again, this time drawing a big, fat juicy pen mark around their work for leftfield luminaries like Le Tigre, Blues Explosion, Chemical Brothers, Fischerspooner, Radio 4, Gorillaz, Hot Chip and those solid New York groovesters, Metro Area.

Chapter One of a two chapter series, this CD will be followed by a summer release that promises such tasty pastries as Goldfrapp, Nine Inch Nails and the Rapture.

There is an additional vinyl issue of the album for those with their needle in the groove and their head stuck in the eighties.
