Hey look! Our very first premiere! [Update: Someone else snuck it up before us, but we got the track from Adi himself! So there.] And how much more fitting could it be that it combines three things that we love so very much — Ellie Goulding, Monsiuer Adi and remixes! And this here is a good one, too. This site is no stranger to the Monsieur Adi remix and I feel like they usually start out pretty subdued and lead to a huge buildup, but this one hits a homerun right off the bat (how’s that for two baseball cliches in one sentence?). The beautiful acoustic guitar in the original is gone and instead we are treated to a futuristic beat that works in such perfect tandem with what sounds like a full string section even though the two are really polar opposites.
I think the best word I can think of to describe this sound is “fresh”. I must say, I think these are the third and fourth remixes Monsieur Adi has produced that that I’ve posted. And even though I really liked them all, I can totally see this guy growing into a pretty great under the radar producer. I guess you could say I’m naming him an official dailybeatz “Producer to Watch”.

And here’s some more evidence. Monsieur Adi has also recently released a killer throwback remix of Soul II Soul’s “Back to Life”, an absolute classic. And again he seamlessly weaves in a total classical vibe with a modern twist. I think it’s safe to say that Monsieur Adi is on fire right now.
