Brakes - 'All Night Disco Party' [Remix] (Rough Trade) Released 03/04/06

Are we just cynical buggers, but what the fuck is the score with dance remixes of indie tracks. Nine times out of ten they�re just painfully middling. This Graham Sutton �rehash� of Brakes� fan-fookin-tastic �All Night Disco Party� is no exception. True, the beats are beefed up a bit, there�s some additional acid noise thrown in mid-way through but other than that it�s just the same tune � surely any lame brain with a laptop could do it?! Quite how the over-zealous PR people can claim it�s exhilarating we�ll never know. Fair play to Kahuna�s spliced up and Herbert's bizarre (complete with chipmunk-esque vocals) versions on the flip side, which although far from great at least try to do something different.
