One of the standout tracks from last year’s well-received ‘Give Blood’ LP, ‘All Night Disco Party’ sees the Brighton-based indie supergroup simultaneously ribbing dumb Euro-pop and the DFA roster to boot. Singer and British Sea Power drummer Eamon Hamilton adopts a curiously German-sounding accent on three remixes which twist and mangle the original track with varying results. The Graham Sutton Mix takes a minimal-variation approach, with a steady pulsing beat and even slips in a cheeky 90’s Eurodance-style breakdown-and-build up.
After the relatively linear nature of the first track, the arguably superior FC Kahuna Mix does a wholesale savage cut-and-paste job on the guitars, whilst also adding robot voices, frantic beats and stuttering synths. The third, least appealing mix by Matthew Herbert perhaps goes the furthest in tweaking the song beyond recognition, but it does amusingly truncate the vocal hook to “ ‘ckin disco” (or the slightly less funny “King Disco”, depending on your ears).
There’s only a certain amount of times you can hear the title phrase repeated ad infinitum in Eamon’s mechanical tones across these tracks before you go utterly crackers. But as we all know, repetition is a dancer’s best friend, and these remixes are sure to get the kids busting some moves at indie discos throughout the land.
