LA's Danny Olson is following a path that many who seek to earn their keep in the music industry take on before they "make it," in churning out remixes of popular music to declare their own brand. But he's also going above and beyond that, releasing pop-dance crossover originals like "Mirrorball" and "Wild Side" in the past year. Today, it's Olson's newest remix that's caught our ear, this time of a major emotional and vocal pop hit (from Adele, of course).
Keeping any vocal in tact in a remix is key to keeping the attention of an Adele fan, and it's obvious Olson has kept that in mind in his remix of "When We Were Young." Turning the track into an electronic piece, he's kept the melancholy manner of the original in his production, bringing in progressive notes that play nicely, and are also in discord. Check it out below.
