WOW! I just stumbled across this one and had to do a double take to make sure I was reading the title correctly. Bass music heavyweight Figure just released this remix of my all-time favorite hip-hop act, Deltron 3030. This is the perfect blend of hip-hop and EDM that so many have attempted yet so few have been successful at. Figure does a great job at keeping the tracks original feel and making it very ‘Figure’ at the same time. Here’s what he had to say about the remix:
“Deltron 3030 was essential music to me for so long that to have the groups blessing on this remix is more than a honor. Dan The Automator was more than kind enough to send me Del’s studio acapella, and Del gave me the thumbs up on the mix … In short, I am very giddy about this one!
I tried to capture the vibe of the original all while keeping my sound intact. This remix isn’t made for just dj sets… it’s for the people who grew up on this album like I did and still hold that era up on a pedestal.” ~ FIGURE
