Freeform Five are the warlocks of remixing, their discography ranging from Elton John's Are You Ready and Dido's Thank You to N.E.R.D's Lapdance and Xpress2's Lazy. So do the London four-piece cut the mustard with their first full single, Strangest Things? Well the mustard isn't just cut, it's sprayed and squirted all over the dance floor in this most delicious and dirty off-beat house track.
A throaty male singer invites you to "come give me a kiss, I like it just like this, get me closer" amid warm sleazy drums and funky bubbling synths. It sounds gothic in its approach but with touches of Prince, even echoing the high-pitched tickling guitar riff in Kiss.
Seedy lyrics such as "I'll make you go where you've never been and do the strangest things" augment the throbbing vibes in this floor-filling tune. If you're going to pull anyone, request this song. It's sex on a single.
