2019 is set to be Silva‘s year. Fresh off his incredible original ‘Unforgotten,’ the Perth based producer returns with a stunning official remix of UZ’s ‘Leave It.’ If the original version was back alleys, blunts and baseball bats, Silva’s rendition is a lush sun-filled meadow with birds soaring majestically through.
Rome Fortune’s gritty raps are a big part of what drew Silva to remixing the track. “The original really caught my attention, particularly the vocals. I knew I could take a real different take with the vocals – I really love how aggressive they are, they gave me ideas straight away,” he expands. Silva channels that agression and counterbalances it with a backdrop that’s approachable, upbeat and lovely. “Listening to it I wouldn’t think I’d be capable of combining these two elements together, but in the production process I started the track with a simple chord progression and just let it keep growing to what it is now. Super happy with the outcome,” says Silva. He’s not the only one super happy with how this turned out. One listen and I’m sure you will be too.
The track comes off UZ’s The Rebirth (Remixes) which is out today on Quality Goods Records.
