No, your eyes are not deceiving you and I did not make a typo, Miike Snow really spell their name with two I's, making them possibly the most unGoogleable band of the moment (evidenced here, Illinois you're running a close second). Little is known about these guys other than the fact that they named themselves after Japanese cult film director Takeshi Miike, so their single "Animal" is our only source of info, a relaxed, beach-ready bit of electrolyzed pop that glides through its four-plus minutes on a bed of off-beat keyboard strokes. Our friends at Downtown roped in some great producers to version the tune, and we'll be premiering those over the next couple of weeks, beginning this morning with a refix from Fool's Gold's resident disco-house dude Treasure Fingers. Doing what he does best, TF adds some thick low-end and even more bouncy keys on top, conjuring something that sounds like Kavinsky doing the Buggles. Get into the tracks below, and make sure to come back on the next couple Mondays for more versions (including a few by some well-known Frenchmen.)

Sounds like: Sean Bones, That Ghost, Kavinsky
