All the way back in 2007, there was a very limited release of deadmau5’s ‘Jaded’, now, 17 years later – the track is properly available to the masses via a new four-track EP. Includes is the original record, alongside a new 12 minute edit from deadmau5 and another Ambient Mix to go alongside. Finaling the package is a remix from rising producer Volaris.
“‘Jaded’ was one of the first tunes that got me fully into progressive house. It is such an infectious tune, when I got asked to remix it, I was nervous as what can you do to an already huge and iconic record,” shares Volaris. “I’ve made so many versions of this remix as I really wanted to do it justice. Ultimately this isn’t here to compete with the original as nothing ever will but I hope you like my take on this iconic tune.”
Following the Layton Giordani remix of ‘Strobe,’ Jauz’ ‘Ghosts ‘n’ Stuff,’ John Summit’s ‘I Remember,’ and Rebuke’s ‘Not Exactly,’ another classic from deadmau5′ illustrious repertoire has received the remix treatment from today’s top producer talents with a new twist.
It seems that deadmau5 has a lot more control over his past catalogue, to the complaints of no one. Hopefully, more of the older anthems see new life as well.
