Sometimes sifting through the heaps of bloghouse remixes that get unceremoniously vomited into the internet on a daily basis can reap some sweet rewards. In this track, La Roux's original-- a good song with an arrangement I don't really dig-- gets an epic reworking by the indefatigable Skream. He waits a cool two minutes before dropping the beat, highlighting La Roux's rich vocal track with a low, moody bassline and letting atmosphere and tension build in an electrifying way; when the breakbeats of the coda hit, it's like a sign from God.
