It’s nearly festival time, and you know what that means: lots of new music! While we’re bound to hear a lot of new originals from artists across the board, it’s also a great time to drop remixes to popular songs, like, hm, I don’t know… “Something Just Like This” by The Chainsmokers & Coldplay?
In just the past 24 hours, we’ve already got two new remixes, courtesy of Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and ARMNHMR. The former debuted their remix at Miami Music Week to a packed crowd, and clearly it went off. The recording itself seems to replay in the actual audio, but you get the general idea.

ARMNHMR’s remix came out officially yesterday, premiered by Billboard, but unfortunately it has since been removed by ARMNHMR themselves. They promise there’s a good reason and it’ll be back up soon, which makes us think it’s been snagged for the official remix pack, whenever that comes. The pop tune is retooled as a powerfully uplifting melodic dubstep tune, making full use of Chris Martin’s voice and the sultry guitar plucks in the original.
Hey guys! Tldr; we took down our SJLT remix but it'll be back later. Hear us out, we don't like doing this but trust us it's for the best.

Till the time comes we're sure you can find it somewhere on the internet. Promise it'll come back. Thanks for the insane amount of love ❤❤❤

Finally, we have this unofficial cut from Ummet Ozcan that showed up at the beginning of the month – as far as we can tell, it hasn’t been officially released anywhere. That being said, the remix shows Ozcan’s versatility as a producer, bumping up the tempo into a real party tune.

Stay tuned for (inevitably) more “Something Just Like This” remixes over the weekend!
