The popularity of remixes has grown over the past couple of years, so picking the right acts to "re-invent" an artist's track is of the utmost importance. Time and time again, I listen to remixes and cringe -- with the remixer either completely changing the original or hardly doing anything to it. Finding that balance is paramount, and Future Classic artistHayden James had done exactly that with his recent version of Snakadaktal's "Fall Underneath."
James has picked the best of the original -- the flickering guitar licks and the angelic vocals -- and paired them with breakdowns of electronic hip-hop beats. I would have thought it would be impossible to make this track any cooler, but the talented producer has proved me very wrong.
The original track, taken from Snakadaktal's gorgeous debut albumSleep in the Water,can be enjoyed here, while Hayden James' SoundCloud is brimming with electronic masterpieces for you to get your hands on. What a combination!
