“Do the d-a-n-c-e, 1 2 3 4 5,” was an inescapable hook about a decade ago.

Since then, the live instrumentation electronic group, Justice, have struggled to create an album with an impact as powerful as their first. Despite the decline in prominent releases, they continue to have a strong presence in the festival circuit around the world.

Their upcoming LP, Justice, plans to change all that, aiming to take some of the dynamic rehashes they’ve performed live and capture that energy in a studio cut.

On the first single, the veteran French duo take some of their most memorable sound bites and mash them into a powerful frenzy.


The iconic “D.A.N.C.E.” vocal sample is placed on top of a gritty synth line to start the track, teasing the bass for about a minute before it angles into the mix smoothly. The next segment gives way to a packed-in verse, adding a familiar instrumental next to the synth. Borrowing the timeless funky organ grooves from 2016’s “Fire” to lay over the chopped up vocals from the same track is about all the mix can take, until the anthemic chorus from their hit, “Safe and Sound”, leads the track into its final victory lap.

Clocking in at 6 minutes, Justice wastes little time reminding you how much fun their music can be. It’s odd that they seem to be asking their fans to treat the upcoming release as a new LP when it’s more or less an album of preexisting songs, but if this cut is any indication of their ability to re-imagine, all doubts should be withheld.

Making a new album of re-envisioned songs inspired by their love of their live iterations is in line with Justice’s release history thus far, in which each studio album has been followed by a live recording. But, rather than repeat themselves, they have made Woman Worldwide sound like a proper studio album whereas A Cross The Universe and Access All Arenas both purposely sounded like bootlegs.
