iamJENI - Stay (Rih-make)

Rihanna had a smash with 'Stay' a while back. It became

one of those songs that had scores of DJs remixing it.

After Frankensteining Justin Timberlake's 'Suit & Tie,'

and a killer live bedroom cover of SBTRKT's 'Wildfire' 

she comes with an incredibly lush take on Rihanna's hit.

You know it's Rihanna's song 

but iamJENI's sound is its own world.

Rihanna - Diamonds (Ultrademon Remix)

Ok let's just get it out of the way. This was probably one of the most

remixed songs of recent memory. Approaching another remix with

a degree of cynicism at this point would not be unjustified. But this 

is something else, an instance of an artist drawing a song into his

world and transforming it.

Over a wobbly jungle beat, Ultrademon re-arranges Rihanna's vocals into 

new melodies while frantically pitch shifting them over 

a stream of cascading whimsical chimes.

Ultrademon is currently working on a debut album 'Seapunk' -
named after the genre he is associated with.
And if this remix is any indication, 

we should be in for a mind-braising treat.
