Cosmic Gate - Perfect Stranger (Wezz Devall Remix)

When I listen to this compared to the original, the phrase "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" comes to mind. This remix doesn't make too many obvious changes from the original but the ones that it does push this production from good to great. Firstly, the acidy sounds from the original are less pronounced which, considering the euphoric peak, gives the song a lot more stability. The breakdown and the build remain more or less the same, but with the less pronounced opening somehow seem a lot more uplifting. When listening to Cosmic Gates version you feel like you're listening to a production, there are very distinct differences in the different sounds. Wezz Devall manages to take the different frequencies and make them come together. If Devall had never made the remix, I never would've noticed the issues with the original. Devall shows here that he is an extremely talented producer and I look forward to hearing what he does next.
