Emeli Sande “Haven”
I have no idea, why I didn’t include this track on my “best of 2011 chart“. It would have been one of the best three. Emeli’s voice should be captured into to a bottle and send to space, so that other civilisations could know, that humans are able to do remarkably beautiful things.
I don’t think she recorded it as a drum’n’ bass, but the beat here definitely justifies posting it in DNB category. Below original version You can find 2 remixes. First is great acustic version and the second dnb Nu:Tone remix. There are more of course to find on Youtube.
Original version, better quality here
Acustic version
Nu:Tone Remix
DJ 2-Tone Jones “Blue Hype”
Way Out West – The Gift & The Gift (Logistics Remix)
Good example how drum’n bass sound evolved since ’90. Below great Way Out West tune from 1996 with easygoing drums and space. And below 2011 Logistics remix of this track with its masssive acceleration and intensity.
Check other remixes of this track made by: Gui Boratto, Michael Woods and Tek-One. You can buy them here. It is a release published by Deconstruction records.
