Remix Dean
Nevermind all that politicking and horse-racing: This is cool (via Jason). Very silly, but also cool. They’re taking a currently important moment in the cultural landscape and (re?)defining it from their points of view. I wish these sorts of remixes could happen for other things as well. (Maybe, for better or for worse, it’ll become part of the political lexicon like “I paid for this microphone” – with, probably, the opposite consequences for the speaker. The remix probably gives it more staying power, because it puts a name and a context – a “hook”? – to what is otherwise an un-replicable sound – a bizarre sound, a memorable sound, but just a sound nonetheless.) (BTW, this is not meant as a comment on Dean.)
