The rise of James Murphy and Tim Goldsworthy-the production team known as The DFA-didn’t happen overnight. Rather, it moved in increments, one hipster dance party and disco edit at a time. Earlier this year, the duo laid ’em bare, cobbling together the first chapter in their DFA Remixes series-a confident, career-spanning collection of reinventions that saw Le Tigre, Chemical Brothers, and Gorillaz fly through their ‘80s-loving ringer. The recent Chapter 2 is more of the same, except here they stretch their psych-dance magic over 12-minute stretches of Goldfrapp’s “Slide In” and N.E.R.D.’s “She Wants to Move.”
