Dear Ocelot, Daft Punk would like their robot back

Wonderful remixers Ocelot have been a bit quiet recently. After smacking us (as well as the lucky stars of the video) in the face with their remix of Robyn's 'Be Mine' their remix of Dragonette's 'Competition' never saw the light of day, mainly because it was a remix of a Dragonette track. Wrong as it may be, not many people like Dragonette.

However, Ocelot have recently worked their magic (and in this instance the very same spell) on new remixes by bands who are popular. Very popular indeed.

Ocelot have turned The Killer's already amazing 'Human' into a mini robotic masterpiece and have turned the All American Rejects already quite good 'I Hope It Gives You Hell' into an, err, mini robotic masterpiece. If it ain't broke don't fix it etc, and in this instance we are very sure that Ocelot's vocoder most certainly is not broken, since it has seen more than liberal use on both of these remixes. Both tracks have been vocodered like it was 1998.

As people tend to do, Ocelot have whacked these remixes up on their MySpace page. We would like to point out that their own track, 'This Is Our Time' is one of recent history's greatest lost classics. If it wasn't for the blatent drug references it would have made a modern day Modjo or Stardust long ago. Listen here et-cetera.

PS. Cher did the vocoder thing in 1998. Hence the reference. What a long time ago that was.
