Janelle Monae - Make Me Feel (Remniqe Live Edit)
The past week and a half the internet was aflutter with astonishment over Janelle Monae's "Make Me Feel." Personally, I didn't quite get it, but that seems to be the case with most hyped tracks. While it struck me as very similar to much of Bruno Mars' catalog, I actually started to feel it a little more after hearing the various versions that inevitably arise after such a hype track appears. I came to find more similarities to Prince and Michael Jackson, and how could that not make you smile. This version below, courtesy NYC producer Remniqe, not only nails the brilliance of both of those two but gives it a deeper house groove. Fashioned more for filling the floor than the original, this one quite simply speaks to me, and I'm sure will have people going crazy in the clubs. Sorry I only shared on a Sunday, but I'm sure it'll still go over just as well next weekend. Pick up the free download via Hyppedit here, and have at it!FOLLOW REMNIQE: FACEBOOK SOUNDCLOUD TWITTER
