The original clip for TPC’s “Cheer It On” had the Canadian quartet in a frozen forest, but the original doesn’t even feature the band. Not live versions of ‘em anyway; Tokyo Police Club turn up as lilliputian figures in an elder gent’s miniature city, inciting indie rock anarchy with a climax straight outta Gulliver’s Travels.

And on the heels of RAC’s awesome “Be Good” remix, Trey Told Em (Greg Gillis and Frank Musarra) offers up an Girl Talk-styled take on “Cheer It On,” giving the track a facelift, keeping the vox and toying with some dancefloor shout outs.

Enjoy.

UPDATE: Make that three TPC remixes in two weeks. The Go! Team take the wound-up Tokyo tune and give it a shuffling scuttle pulse, reprising the song as a lazy-day head-bopper. Hear it at MySpace.

    the trey told em remix link is not working

  2. Different, that’s for sure. The band sounds halfway decent, but I’ve never been fond of the “clay-people” style. Reminds of whatchamacallem – “Walter and Grommit” I think. Good song, though.
