The album mix opens this single, with glimmering synths and strutting bass making for a pop/funk/electro melt that doesn’t seem worried about much beyond maintaining the beat’s groove. The B-side remix by Justice does seem rearrangement of the elements, cutting between conga drumming and deepened bass wells, while charging the synth lines with the electric buzz that characterized their † album, released the previous year. It makes for a more energized take on the track, but the fundamentals don’t move much, despite the extensive mixing treatments given to the assorted channels. A neat twist, but one which stays more or less on even footing with the original.
