Coming off the massive release of “#Selfie,” The Chainsmokers have reverted back to their roots and produced this up beat indie progressive house remix of Chromeo’s “Jealous (I Ain’t With It)”. Alex & Drew keep the vibe of the original track all while flawlessly infuse their energetic style through moving synth work and vocal drowning. This rework will be officially released on April 4th, and while you wait to grab your own copy read what The Chainsmokers had to say about this project below.
“Chromeo is one of those groups that really define a genre and time in music. For us their take on electronic music really served as a foundation for our tastes in production. Dave1’s effortless vocal work that always feel as cool as it sounds, paired with the incredible melodies and instrumentation from Gemayel these guys really crushed. So when we were contacted to remix Jealous we honestly felt like we had a song that we felt could be as big as Daft Punk’s, Get Lucky . After it was said and done, we were so happy with the remix we created. It gave the song that house dance feel, but didn’t feel forced at all. The song seemed to have this great level of space and pacing and nothing felt unnecessary. The more we produce the more its about doing more with less, and this for us nailed that theory. The song effortlessly flows like good Chromeo songs does but achieves that unique Chainsmoker energy…” – The Chainsmokers (via SoundCloud)
