Shiba San re-imagines the deadmau5 & Kaskade classic ‘I Remember’
When it comes to deadmau5’s back catalog there are few tracks as iconic as Joel’s 2008 collaboration with Kaskade “I Remember.” Quite possibly one of the most beautiful top lines of dance music’s millennial revival, the 6-years young hit paired Mau5’s sound design talent with Raddon’s knack for euphoric soundscapes and wrapped it in a bow courtesy of Haley Gibby’s soaring top line. Another impressive re-imagining off the forthcoming 5 Years of Mau5 compilation, Dirtybird contributor Shiba San installs a brand new transmission into the mix, swapping out the panning synthwork with a rich and analog-driven deep house backbone. Premiered as a first listen by Pete Tong, Shiba leaves Gibby’s vocals un-altered and instead focuses his attention on creating a shifty groove that turns “I Remember” from a hands-in-the-air sing-a-long into a side step shuffle gem destined to wear dancefloors thin when it is officially released in late November.
