I am a huge fan of Metric. They have produced nothing but awesome albums, over and over, and I still want Emily Haines to have my babies. In any case, they aren't always on the top of my playlists, when it comes to dance club mixes, but they do have some really fantastic remixed tracks out there. Here are my favorite four of such. You should definitely own these.The Sick Muse remix might be my most often used, as far as live sets go. It's perfectly transformed by Adam Freeland into a danceable track that's heavy on the electro, but not indulgent. The Twelves remix of Help I'm Alive is perfectly disco, and probably the most mass-accessible of these. The distorted, deliberate Applied Science remix of the HUGE hit (in Canada and U.K.) Gimme Sympathy is what I would call an "only for fans" track. It's nice, but only people who love Metric seem to like this remix... but, be my guest to love it too! It's great. Lastly, the remix that started it all for me, MSTRKRFT's remix of Monster Hospital, is my favorite and probably always will be for sentimental reasons. It was one of the first songs I ever used in any mix, and I still get up and move to it when I hear it live (which is basically never, sadly). Enjoy!
