Video Premiere

Disco ‘Duck’

October 13, 2010 1 Comment

One of the catchiest tunes to hit the streets in recent memory is “Barbra Streisand” by Duck Sauce, the latest musical collaboration between New York DJs Armand Van Helden and A-Trak. It’s also one of the most out-there, with the 68-year-old diva’s name serving as one of the vocal hooks for this disco-house stomper.

After premiering at the Winter Music Conference in Miami in March, “Barbra Streisand” got an official release today. The single’s Guilty-inspired cover art, seen at right, is pure genius.

Using their industry connections, Armand and A-Trak snagged an all-star cast for the “Barbra Streisand” music video. You can’t miss an expressionless Kanye West (with whom A-Trak has toured and recorded), reclining in a resplendent rococo chair, but Chromeo, Diplo, Santigold, ?uestlove, Pharrell Williams, and Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig also contribute cameos.

There are some lesser-known names to spot too, plus an impersonator playing the titular songstress, because it’s funny, girl:
