80's Disco-Elevator Montage

Treasure Fingers Remix of Clasixx's 2009 hit, I'll get you.


If you like this jam as much as I do, check out this unofficial video of the original after the break.
  I'll Get You (Treasure Fingers Holy Shit Bassline Remix) by skorsz

Treasure Fingers has done great work for years.  I am aware that this song has made the rounds in the blog-o-sphere, but it's just brilliant and deserves a second look.  Like that great book you read in high school and still re-read every couple of years.  Or like the disco from next door.  See what I did there, eh? Like girl next door?  But it's an 80's disco.  Eh?!?  Or maybe elevator music, where the elevator is a montage of a roller disco movie.  And everyone is sporting an afro.  And there's that girl from accounting next to you that you never had just the right opportunity to talk to.  And then the elevator gets stuck and you just remembered that you have no reception and there's no phone in the elevator, but you brought an extra sandwich if she would like one and you also unexpectedly left Yahtzee in your backpack from that trip you took across town to Sarah and Michelle's last weekend and would she like to play, oh, of course?  She loves Yahtzee, too!

Kind of like that. Like a great day.

Better'd just put it on repeat.  And then you can forget that your work-space is located in remodeled one-story garage and that every girl in accounting is married and looks like an aging Hillary Clinton who shops at Lane Bryant, that you hate Yahtzee and you never have enough time in the morning to make your lunch.  And that you have never looked good 'sporting an afro.'  It's a cruel, cruel world we live in.






On another note, I believe Treasure Fingers has released a tune on label Kitsune, which I should learn more about because they seem to have signed every electronic artist residing in the northern hemisphere.  I think they sell clothing on their site, too.  Totally blows my mind.  I will investigate and report too you, faithfully, the mystery of all things french-music label-y.  That's straight from the AP Stylebook, by the way.  Label-y.

Update:  Treasure Fingers is on the label Fools Gold in ATL and Defected.
