You may remember an early summer post about Fool's Gold, the L.A. collective who are part of the emerging world-music-hipster-dance genre. (There's a lot more of it than it's hyphenated name might imply). Their video for lead single "Surprise Hotel" is pretty great, and it served as reminder of how different the girls sitting poolside look when they are in an indie video versus a rap video (some might need more iron in their diets).
To help remind you that you might want to give someone their album as a gift this holiday season, they are disseminating remixes from the album, and one of my favorites is this one from Weird Tapes.
The close runner up though is the Mad Decent Toadally Krossed Out remix of "Surprise Hotel". Listen to how the toad sounds completely give way to a caliber of dance music that harkens back to the dance glory days of the early 90s.
