There’s heavyweight remixers, and then there’s HEAVYWEIGHT remixers. No reference to the newly svelt Rick Rubin’s physical size, in a week that has already seen Damon Albarn save Lana Del Rey from the internet doghouse, the super-producer has “ruined” Justice’s bombastic “On’n'On” by removing much of the arena bombast of the original and turning it into a slowburn discofied cut begging to be dropped by DJs from DFA to Dixon.

Looking back on the great electro surge of the late oughts, few acts brought the fever to the live stage as well as Justice, whose stacks of fake Marshall amps and giant glowing cross wowed audiences over repeat tours, and was even captured in a film.

Justice will no doubt try to convert the doubters when they return to the States in March for their first live shows of the new decade.
