2) A-ha – “Take On Me” – Kygo Remix
Recommended Videos
2015 saw Kygo’s meteoric rise to musical prominence in full force, as the Norwegian producer took his Tropical House stylings to new heights as a dominant influence on pop music from the EDM spectrum. His remix of A-ha’s 80’s synthpop classic “Take On Me” was as surprising as it is satisfying, giving the soulful tune a Caribbean update that only Kygo could pull off so successfully.
Relaxed vibes and gentle yet clubby beats elevate the catchy vocals, as Kygo infuses his signature pan flute melodies and washes of oceanic white noise into his updated production. The producer built a name for himself off of his tropical updates of existing songs, and “Take On Me” joined the ranks as one of his best remixes in this vein.
