Seriously dudes, you look effin stupid.
So there I was in my internet chair thinking about why I haven’t heard any decent remixes lately. Then, these two Mystery Jets remixes popped out of the internet tube and into my ears and I felt good again. Huzzah!
The first is by Duke Dumont and is a positively epic 8 minute tune that sounds like Nathan Fake tinkering with in Royksopp’s studio while living on a diet of Apparat. Dumont plays McGruders on June 21st.
The second is a remix of the band’s song ‘Hideaway’ with Erol Alkan by Switch edited by Diplo and is already massive in some DJing circles.
Whatever way you vote today, vote YES for these Mystery Jets remixes!

I’ll vote yes for Mystery Jets any day! Great album. Shame the gig was rescheduled to August.
The Duke Dumont remix is great. The chimey intro reminds me of the intro to New Born by Muse in some weird way. But yeah, lovely Fake/Field bits, and the chorus isn’t even missed.
Mystery Jets microchip babies.
Aye spot on man!
Do Penney’s sell those slightly oversized baby blue trousers on second from left, go down well in Whelans I’d expect.
“Cedarwood State”
The trousers of champions.
Those pastels are making me blush.
This ocmment is easy. They look like dorks.
