On the flipside, his T Remix steps things up a gear and takes things down a darker route, one which puts the mix firmly in late night warehouse territory. A growling bassline underpins the Beat Dancer vocal sample and carries the groove alongside a sharp, electro synth and low-end effects that bubble throughout. Channelling a distinct progressive influence, the T Remix provides guaranteed energy for those heads-down dance floor situations.
