The latest addition to Italians Do It Better’s already stellar roster of cosmic disco prodigies is NYC’s Invisible Conga People. The New York duo list Can, Ethiopiques, Fela Kuti, and Les Rallizes Denudes amongst their influences on myspace, but first single “Cable Dazed” is a hazy number that recalls some of the more sinister, icier jams on the Knife’s “haunted house” masterpiece Silent Shout. Rolling and melodic it is absolutely mesmerising and arguably the the best crossover tune of last year, making both the Pitchfork top 50 and resident advisor top 20 tunes of 2008.

I have also included a rare atmospheric remix by Efdemin, It ties in with the vibe cable dazed created…I think these 2 tunes could be the only parallel between DFA and Dial records.
