Alphabeat! *muted applause*

Unexpectedly my Pitchfork review of Alphabeat has gone up!

Feel free to castigate me if this has been up on Poptimists before, but this is the Pete Hammond remix of "Boyfriend", pointed out to me by koganbot (who reps for the superb longer - oh, what the hell, call it by its name, TWELVE INCH - version). It's my favourite Alphabeat thing.

The chorus sounds great for 2 seconds but then fails to capitalise on that Casio-preset #3 cowbell noise.

Needs more cowbell -- try the 12"! (http://www.zshare.net/download/1501102102ab959a/) Makes chorus failures much less prominent.
