Ratatat Mixtape Vol. 1 is a self-released remix album by the Brooklyn indie electronic rock duo Ratatat. It includes performances from hip-hop artists Missy Elliott, Dizzee Rascal, Raekwon and Ghostface. Guitarist Mike Stroud, in an interview with Glide Magazine, acknowledged both the marked departure from their instrumental first album Ratatat and perceived dichotomous nature of their sound by saying “Especially with remixes, we approach it a bit differently than our other music. It’s something we originally did for fun, that’s now part of what we are.” [1]
