Emerging producer & DJ, Oliver Heldens, has done some remixing work on the massively popular “Animals” by Martin Garrix as part of the upcoming ‘Animals (The Remixes Part 1)’ collection soon to be released on Spinnin Records. Working on a track, that has over the past year been fondled with countless producers, Heldens provides perhaps one of the most unique perspectives on the dance anthem, through his innovative remix.
Following up on his breakthrough single “Gecko”, which is still currently on the Top 10 Overall Beatport Chart and under Tiesto’s ‘Musical Freedom’ record label, Oliver Heldens takes to the ominious task of remixing the festivious track with a dabble of creativity ! With a song structure which is still inherently club-oriented, the remix gives a slight touch of progressive electro and is perhaps more groove dominated than the original. The track begins with a basic 4 by 4 drum line, till it reaches the drop masked behind the distinctive vocal sample, all before a fresh bassline is introduced, one which sounds more continuous & fluid when compared to the chopped up synth work on the original. Oliver may have just provided a brand new outlook on arguably the biggest release of last year. Check it out below and decide for yourself!
