Cobra Starship Remix Chromeo

From Atlantic Records Posted May 20, 2011

As if Chromeo aren't funky enough, they've been given an extra boost of cool thanks to Cobra Starship's remix of their song 'Hot Mess'. Chromeo’s Dave 1 explains how the collaboration came about to Spin.com:

“I’ve known [Cobra Starship singer] Gabe Saporta for years. Yet as we were completing our album a year ago, I had no idea that Cobra Starship already had a (pretty huge) song called ‘Hot Mess.’ We didn’t want to change our title. So I hit him up to joke about it and he said, ‘It’s all good, just let us remix your track.’ The remix is the farthest thing from what I imagined those guys would come up with. Yacht-rock mania, anyone? A sax intro? An ’80s Mentos commercial feel-good chorus? This isn’t the Cobra Starship you know. This is them wearing white pants and no socks.”
