The German duo Âme's remix of "Repeat Again After Me" has been burning up dance floors for a few months now, and it's not hard to understand why: slow-burning in a bewildering 3/4 time signature, it marries overdriven Moogy squeals to an aching saxophone solo, resulting in nine-plus minutes of cosmic disco madness.

The original, however-- the work of Zombie Zombie member Etienne Jaumet, a French synthesizer wizard who's clearly spent as much time listening to Conrad Schnitzler as he has Giorgio Moroder-- is even better, and not only because it's four minutes longer. Playing an ever-modulating Korg SH101 arpeggio against a bare-bones 808 pattern, letting the sax run free and wild, the track pulses with astral intensity, magnetic fields flaring with the agonized twirling of the dials.
