This remix is simply down ‘n’ dirty. Aptly, too, as it features Australia’s own Bertie Blackman, with a voice seductive enough to woo even the most celibate of Vatican priests. Here, the UK’s Marco Del Horno—who you may recognize from his stints on pirate radio powerhouse Rinse FM—oversees a splendid transformation of the original’s electronic pop sensibility into a bass-heavy dubstep tune. Stamping the song with characteristically grimy stabs and stringy synths while Blackman’s silky voice floats atop the mix, Del Horno keeps the track from becoming a faceless wobble-bass workout.
