so this just came out monday, and unfortunately not having turntables i was *cough* forced to download it. well, holy crap.
phantom is pretty standard justice, loud distorted bass and synths, great stuff but nothing ground breaking.
the title track on the other hand... im amazed. i had no idea justice could do a pop song this well, it really is spectacular. they do a great job of melding those bit crushed electro sounds with some excellent old school samples. oddly enough, it brings about hints of jackson 5 as well as michael's own off the wall album, with those soaring string stabs being tossed around.
check out the radio edit of d.a.n.c.e. on their myspace, but keep in mind, it doesn't do justice (no pun intended) to the extended mix on the single.
also, the remix b.e.a.t. is a strong reworking of the title track and stands well on its own. now all we need is a full album from these guys, but i have a sad feeling it wont be until theyve put out at least a few more singles, which unfortunately is happening at way too slow a rate for my tastes.

despite the justice hatin', i'll still post this.
Exclusive: Justice Reveal Debut LP Details French electronic duo (no, not that one... or that one) and Kanye West fan club presidents Justice will release their symbol-heavy †(that's a cross in case your browser hates on certain characters) on Vice Records/Ed Banger July 10.
†includes Pitchfork's 35th favorite track of 2006, "Waters of Nazareth", as well as "D.A.N.C.E.", released in single form this week. The long-awaited full-length debut from pious producers/remixers Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay will bring due process to the world through the summer, and, although the Justice league is currently only scheduled for a handful of live dates, you can expect that to change soon.
†:
01 Genesis 02 Let There Be Light 03 D.A.N.C.E. 04 New Jack 05 Phantom 06 Phantom pt. II 07 Valentine 08 The Party 09 DVNO 10 Stress 11 Waters of Nazareth 12 One Minute to Midnight
Justice in action:
04-27 Chicago, IL - Smart Bar 04-28 Indio, CA - Empire Polo Field (Coachella)

Hope the album's more like their remixes, which it most probably is. It'll be interesting to hear.

no, from what i have read, they will be concerntrating on pop now. i don't like euro vocal pop so their new music will be off my list.
if that's is fickle, cool.

yeah, the jackson mix is fucking epic, clocking in at over 11 minutes.
only problem is, like with pretty much all his tracks, i have to crank them so much louder to make it fit with a mix, dunno why really.

i love dance, but the rest of the album gets dull soon. like listening to the same track all over again. mr. oizo was doing this sort of stuff for the past 10 years..but d.a.n.c.e., yes this one's very nice.

Cassius 1999 is great. Shame about their recent stuff, very boring.
Strange how much I love filterhouse nowadays, considering how tired I grew of it when it got huge in France by the end of the 90s. Might be a kneejerk reaction to soulless recent dance music, incredibly clean, serious and stern under its veneer of good fun. D.A.N.C.E. is one of the more tolerable Justice songs, but it still lacks something.

Well firstly, for a track called D.A.N.C.E., it certainly lacks danceability.

yeah, exactly..going over these older dance songs from late 90's (and earlier) shows how blank dance (house) music got nowdays.. and that it actually hasn't moved much forward, except they got rid of the soulfulness..
as for danceabilty to dance..it would do for a slow dance i reckon.
glad to hear you think it's one of their better songs too, i thought it was one of those things only i hear : )

i think its meant to be unpronouncable, like 'the artist formerly known as prince' before he was 'the artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as prince'
and i noticed an ep with a justice remix of d.a.n.c.e., does anyone know if its just b.e.a.t. or something different? because b.e.a.t. is prolly the best of all the versions for sure.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone call it by name, I suppose it's referenced to as the Justice album.

I think Smash is great, I'm not really sure why. Maybe because it was released right before this kind of music became really big and annoying, but I think there's something else. It sounds more daring and fun, groovier, less fixated on that falsely fun club aestheticism.
