Why do we like this?

If I'm being honest, the original of this record didn't really do it for me. I've loved all of Royal's music in the past, especially his SoySauce project, but the vocals just were a bit too Justin Bieber-y for me. I'm a Belieber, but I belieb that there's only room for one J.Biebz…

When I opened this, I had low expectations, and Bronze Whale's remix made me think a bit differently about the singing. Especially when Pell's verse came in. The key factor of this record that won me over is the arpeggiated synth section. 

If you dig this, and consider yourself "Down For Whatever," go follow Bronze Whale on Twitter.

By Almond Ivan on Apr 5, 2016 | When this track hit my inbox, my first thought was, damn, not another remix. That feeling slowly drifted away, though. Turns out this isn't your ordinary remix — it's more of a cover. The vocals provided by Jessame won me over as soon as they hit. ... read more →
