The story of THE REMIX
I've always wondered why there aren't any banging EDM remixes for Viva La Vida. The production mostly focuses on the chord progression, which is similar to other songs I've made. I felt like I'd have an easy time working with it because of that. The source material is fantastic, so it felt like this one flew by!
Technically, when you remix a song without approval from the artist or record label, it's called a "bootleg". The problem with this distinction is that most people outside of the production world know this or care. So for the sake of the song being more discoverable, I opted to keep the "remix" title.
I'm sorry that it's only available on Youtube and Soundcloud! I would be able to throw it on Spotify/Apple Music with permission from the appropriate rights holders.
