Steve James shared a recent remix of Lyrah’s gorgeous single “Don’t Make Me,” releasing a remix package for his own original “Us” as well as announcing a remix contest exclusively on the Audius streaming platform.
“As someone who got my start remixing songs, I’ve always wanted to make as much of my songs and as many parts of them available to people as possible. That was one of the frustrations when I was signed to a major label: of my whole EP, we weren’t able to release a single remix because of the rights issues and needing so many people within the label to sign off on it. That was a real frustration for me and one of many reasons why I went on to start Butter Beats – to own my own music and help lift up other artists.”
Steve’s take on “Don’t Make Me” highlights his penchant for deep house, as he flips the indie pop track into a groovy and evocative dancefloor remix. Stream the remix here.
