In just 10 days, Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter will climb atop a glowing pyramid of light at Keyspan Park in Brooklyn and promptly destroy New York City. In honor of this momentous event (and to relieve the overwhelming anxiety and anticipation that I feel every minute I’m not listening/dancing to Daft Punk), I will be posting a daft punk track/remix/live set (or two) every day up until the concert.

Day 10: Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger. Featured on 2001’s Discovery, this track featured a simple house edit of Edwin Birdsong’s Cola Bottle Baby (1979) and that robot talk box vocal we’ve all come to know and love. Now I still believe that it is impossible to remix Daft Punk (because improving on perfection is fairly difficult), but here are a few remixes by The Neptunes, Cutso, Dirty Disco Youth, and Diplo that are definitely worth a listen.

Daft Punk – Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger
Edwin Birdsong – Cola Bottle Baby
Daft Punk – Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger (The Neptunes Crazy Remix)
Daft Punk – Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger (Cutso Special Blend)

and of course there’s always Kanye….
