LISTEN: Ibeyi’s ‘Stranger/ Lover (Mark Ronson Re-fix)’
The song in question, ‘Stranger/ Lover’, is taken from the pair of artistes’ self-titled debut. The song received a remix from Mura Masa, but Mark Ronson has taken it upon himself to re-fix the song as he said he had never worked so closely with an artiste for a remix before, so much so that it had felt more like a producing gig than just a remix project. Consequently, the British producer permeated the original minimal production with his signature funk and groove elements, turning it into a pop tune that manages to pleasantly disguise the woes of a crumbling relationship.
Listen to the re-fix below:
