Jack Ü's hit collaboration with Justin Bieber, "Where Are Ü Now," got off to a slow start after it was released surprisingly at the end of February with the rest of the duo's album, Skrillex and Diplo Present Jack Ü. It has since become of one of the biggest dance songs on the radio next to tracks like "Hey Mama" and "Lean On," coincidentally, another Diplo production. The track doesn't really need much more promotion at the moment, but the pair asked fellow American star DJ, Kaskade to remix it, and his work has been released today.
The rework was originally premiered last month during one of the "Never Sleep Alone" DJs resident gig and now it has been officially released on iTunes and Spotify.
Kaskade kicks things off with a very subdued, techy bassline, highlighting the Canadian crooner's vocals before dropping off into low-end-friendly drop with some deep sub bass and the twisted sounds that Jack Ü added to the original. Stream the Kaskade remix below.
Kaskade joins three other producers on the total remix package. Other contributions come from Glasgow producer, DJ Rustie, Marshmello and Ember Island who all add their individual twists on the track. Those three remixes will probably be the selections that end up being played out by Skrillex and Diplo live if they dip into this package.
This is the first remix to arrive from Jack Ü's February album. Judging from both Diplo's past album releases and subsequent remix packages, there will be a few more to come.
Kaskade has been putting out some new music in 2015 in anticipation of a new artist album on Warner Bros. Music including the single "Never Sleep Alone," which has been very successful for him so far.
