Cosmic Gate & Emma Hewitt’s ‘Be Your Sound’ is certainly one of the gems & now the remix which has been in the legendary duo’s sets has finally released. The original tune has garnered around 3 million Spotify streams & 15mil on YouTube views into its release history, the one that lit the path to 2011’s ‘Wake Your Mind’ has passed into the ever-dependable remix hands of ilan Bluestone.
ilan’s mix brilliantly gets under the skin of the Emma Hewitt written-&-sung gem. He’s forged a 2018 reimagining that shifts ‘Be Your Sound’ ten degrees deeper, re-framing its vocally emotional sear in a whole new light. Fresh from the release of the Englishman’s own debut LP, ilan, rallies that unique sonic genetic to BYS’s cause.
Stream the remix here:
Through low-slung, ether-steeped bass, compelling, complex drum & perc patterns and imaginatively fashioned FX, he recasts the tune in a moodier-broodier-still manner. Emma’s haunting refrains and lament-tinged song cut every bit as quick as her lyrics do deep. Spotlighting her song, lavish pads and highly developed synth movements sweep the mix’s midpoint, before ilan brings the drums back to pull off its urgent, emotionally charged final act.
