Unexpected.? Listening to new tracks, I came across this new banging and aggressive remix of “Stay the Night” by Zedd ft Hayley Williams and it blew me away.? “Stay the Night” is a pretty and somber stadium/progressive house track which sounds great on the radio but can be pretty difficult to play in a club setting.? The remixes have been pretty good (Tiesto, Nicky), but aside from the DJ Kue mashup with the Jacksons “Can You Feel It,” there hasn’t been one that amped the energy to primetime stomper, until now that is.? This new mix is full-on aggressive electro – touches of R3hab, Showtek, and Alesso – yet also captures the pretty chords and musicality of the original. Realizing it came from Bimbo Jones was a surprise, as it’s the most aggressive thing they’ve done since their tragically underappreciated “Questions” track from a few years back.? The track also feels Dutch and not British. It’s as if the Bimbo Jones guys have succeeded at blending the aggressive electro sounds that dominate Beatport and big rooms with their trademark commercial feel.? So yes, it’s the best of both worlds and stands out as? one of the best remixes of 2013.
