OH MY GOD THIS IS SO GOOD. Did it just come out or what?

The Dabhi/Mosesto? I've been hearing it a lot on dance shows. It is basically very awesome.

I meant the Pizza Hut/Taco Bell, though the other one is quite awesome, too.

Even though the sound has goth-dance tendencies, this basically reminds me of stuff like Flipper's "Sex Bomb" and the Descendents' "Weinerschnitzel."

Das Racist's MySpace page, if that sheds any light. The version here is more techno rap than the Wallpaper remix. Das Racist cite Eminem as an influence and say they sound like Asher Roth. They seem to be serious about that, in fact tend to basically be hip-hop. The remix came out in late March, I think. Kat found it in late April. Here's what claims to be the world premier of the remix, but it's not.

Here's their video for "Chicken and Meat."
