It's 30 years after Tony Manero strutted down the streets of Brooklyn to the tune of the then chart-topping Bee Gees, and somehow the disregarded disco regals are en vogue once more. Here we have the hit single from Saturday Night Fever (and namesake of the Sly-directed film sequel), "Stayin' Alive", getting the remix treatment from Sweden's Teddybears. After an opening "Jive Talkin'"-style strum, the 'bears meld the track's famously funky guitar line to a fuzzed-out bass tone reminiscent of current dancefloor kings Justice. Sadly, the remix slides in at just under three minutes-- not quite long enough to squeeze in the "goin' nowhere" bridge. But hearing those classic Gibb falsettos meshed with some revving snyths and a few bells and whistles means that, whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother, these guys are still stayin' alive.
