Back in June, I first alerted you about Ed Drewett's new buzz track "Good Morning" when I posted the video for the song. Drewett is most certainly no stranger to pop aficionados among you. The young Londoner is responsible for writing a bunch of big pop hits, including The Wanted's "Glad You Came" that is without a doubt one of the year's biggest pop tunes in America.
Italian DJ, designer and producer Monsieur Adi was impressed by Drewett's "Good Morning" as well and decided to completely reinterpret the original track. After remixing songs by Frankmusik and Ellie Goulding early on in their careers, Adi once again demonstrates that he has a knack for selecting exciting new talent to remix for.
For his remake of "Good Morning," Monsieur Adi took the original completely apart to properly isolate Drewett's soulful vocals and amplify the song's melancholic sentiment. He then added some brooding, baroque synths, soaring strings and a slow-churning new groove to create a grand sonic soundscape that gives Drewett's original an epic new quality. It's a phenomenal piece of work that demonstrates Adi's finely tuned musicality while also emphasizing the powerful melodic quality of Drewett's original. Five out of five stars.
