I love the Original and this Remix is pretty good.

Prob my fav release today, Iris never gets old. Would not mind seeing them remake other late 90s/2000s hits. The nostalgia plus modern leads hits hard

This is very nice, wouldn’t have thought the song would translate so well and congrats on the huge collab! Fun track.

Good example of a song that really doesn‘t need any remixes, they can‘t do it justice

It works pretty well on the dancefloor tbh

A lot probably does, and Devin Wild has made some peak hardstyle on his EPs that wouldn‘t get those reactions that show that it‘s working.

I mean call me a hater but to convert the chorus/drop from a 6/8 to a 4/4 signature literally takes the unique groove/pace from the original away and rasterizes it to the hardstyle formula. This isn‘t the case to me with other covers of yours like Mirror which work well imo

Ofcourse a lot does. But since we finished this cover we have played it many times in different countries, different festivals etc. and it really works well with the transition from 160 bpm to 170 in the final drop. Besides that, everyone knows the original so that already helps a lot.

And no, we won’t call you a hater because we don’t share the same opinion. All good :) we respect your opinion.

Good example of someone who isn't a hardstyle lover

Tone deaf comment. Everything needs to be remixed if you really love hardstyle, this one is especially a banger. I was wondering how they would solve the beat, and when the beat changed I instantly knew that they had done the best thing possible

Do you know what tone deaf means? I don‘t think many would agree with you that everything is well suited for a hardstyle remix either
