Last fall we heard that the folks at Fabric had asked Justice to put together a Fabric Live mix. For some reason, that Mix was rejected. The mix is mostly composed of cheesy french pop classics and that's probably why Fabric turned it down (them being Pub Drinkin' Rave Brits!). I doubt it was the: "they weren't ready for something like this." Justice claimed. I bet it was probably the stupid royalties Fabric would have had to shell out to clear all those tracks. They probably already regret having spent all that money when they made James Murphy's CD a couple of months ago.
In any case, I know a couple people who almost cried about this incident, but you know what, the French duo put it out for free anyway! You can go download it here now, so stop crying!!! I do gotta give it up to them though. The mix is pretty good. There's some hidden gems here, But please, next time add some Cerrone ok...Now if you excuse me, I'm gonna open a bottle of red wine and enjoy some stinky cheese with my baguette. Bon Appetit!
