Why do we like this?
Alright folks, here's the warning: this has to be one of the weirdest tracks that I've ever posted. But something about it is so thoroughly enrapturing that I can't pass it up. I seriously debated whether it was appropriate for a SOTD slot, but...wow, this is original. So in case you were wondering what Missy Elliott's "Work It" would sound like slowed down and backed up by bongos, you now know.

Nicolas Jaar's retake on the original comes as part of three "Bluewave" edits released on Soundcloud yesterday. You can listen to them here, but just in case you can't change the channel right now, we've included another one as today's Bonus, particularly notable for its drum work.
