when you were young...

So there has much mention lately of THE Justin Bieber remix. 

You know, the one in which he gets slowed down 800%, so his song ends up 35 minutes long and sounding like Sigur Ros. I really like it and no doubt the revolutionary time-stretching software used to create it has a bright future in the right hands.

But if that remix was the sound of J-Beebz getting spiked with some extremely strong sedatives, then this one (from NYC hip hop genius El-Producto) neutralises its prey with a straight up (bitch) slap. El-P has been back to his best recently and both remixes are notable for taking a Bieber vocal and turning it into something genuinely emotionally affecting.

So anyway, check it, a deeply unholy 3-way between Justin Bieber, El-P and Wings. This is what music blogs are supposed to do right, post mash ups?

... and i guess i may as well post the other one too, to calm you down afterwards and for all the Bieber dilettantes that may have missed it:
