Pet Shop Boys' remix of MGMT's 'Kids': sounds like Pet Shop Boys remixing MGMT's 'Kids'

  • December 10, 2008
  • Popjustice

Remixes of MGMT's 'Kids' will never really top the head-exploding excite­ment of this exact recording…

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkEa26fdydQ

…but the Pet Shop Boys mix, unre­leased by MGMT's label for reasons too painfully obscure to go into here, probably comes a close second. It's got robot voices and Neil's voice and all the usual stuff you'd hope for (except crowd noise and rave horns).

You can listen to it by going to the Pet Shop Boys site (www.petshopboys.co.uk), clicking on 'Navigation', clicking on 'Product', clicking on 'Exclusive tracks' (wake up at the back) then clicking on the little purple square next to 'Kids (PSB Synthpop mix)'.
