I’ve been scavanging the net for over a month looking for the Rex the Dog and Booka Shade remixes of The Knife’s song “Marble House.” I bought the CD version of the single a while back, but that lacked the amazing remixes that the 12″ version of the signle has.

I already posted this in a comment on my Coachella Day 1 post, but I felt it was so important that it deserved a proper post, as well.
Yesterday I finally found a web site where you can download an MP3 of the Daft Punk performance at Coachella. The quality is quite good so I highly [...]
