Matthew Dear has always been pushing himself, and his newest album was an absolute smash hit to everyone in all musical communities. "Don And Sherri(1)" was one of the most notable hits from the album, and this time we're graced with some remix action from massively popular and talented producers. Get Physical's M.A.N.D.Y. gives us a hella stripped and jacked version of "Don And Sherri(2)," with a bassline that just jacks the system. The vocals get majorly distorted, and that is a no-no with this one - it sounds so much better with the original vox. Hot Chip's version(3) is far more mellow, and it's kind of a nice change for the album. I can't tell if they just took one of Matthew's many vocal tracks or they re-sang the thing themselves, but it's really soothing. The real kicker for the EP is DJ Koze's mix of "Elementary Lover(4)." This one is definitely going to slip past everyone, opting more for the dance versions of "Don And Sherri", but god DAMN is Koze just on fire with this one!
