10 Producers Who Should Remix Miguel

May 22, 2013 - 9:40 pm by Mike Steyels

Miguel is the topic of conversation right now for so many reasons, and notjust because of his Wrestlemaniaantics at the Billboard Music Awards. His songs have reached fans and critics alike in a way that should have lasting effect. He's even touched many electronic music producers, like Cashmere Cat and Kastle, who are trying their hands at reworking his songs.

But there are so many more producers we'd like to see combine their creative energies with that of Miguel's. -->

Mike Q New Jersey's Mike Q is an artist who knows how to blend radio music with club music. This eclectic producer and DJ, who's known from his roots in the Ballroom scene, would definitely be able to take Miguel's music to the dancefloor.

David Guetta On the topic of the Billboard Awards, Guetta won best EDM artist. As such, it's only right to bring up his name when discussing EDM pop crossovers. He is the platinum-plated master of this area, after all.

TOKiMONSTA She would be a perfect fit for this list, but she's already one step ahead of us. The beatsmith reworked "Adorn" last month, turning it into an arpeggiated swirl of bit-crushed emotion.

Dave Nada Moombahton was built on the remix, so a moombah pick for a discussion like this is essential. And we couldn't think of anyone better than Nada, who is more than just the genre's founder - he plainly kills dancefloors dead.

Saucy P Of course it's also necessary to have a Jersey Club selection, and for this list we pick Newark's Saucy P. The combination of hype club beats and smooth R&B vocals is a tricky balance, but Saucy has already proven adept at it with his remixes of Drake and Rihanna.

Holy Other For atmospheric variety, Holy Other would be a great choice. This bass heavy producer can drag a listener to the depths of introspection. Miguel is certainly in touch with a range of emotions and some wild experimentation, making this British artist a fitting remixer.

Funkystepz Just listen to Funkystepz's Jeremih remix and tell us you don't want to hear more R&B versions from them. The urban bass music producers from London have a unique style of their own and a broad interest in genres, leading to surprising but dependable tracks.

DJ Express Newark is home to more dance music than Jersey Club alone, thanks to its large Portuguese community, which Express comes from. The Lusophone culture is known for many different styles of music, and Zouk Bass is a recent invention meant to translate some of that musical wealth to dancefloors more accustomed to dubstep and moombahton. We'll let Express's remix of Rihanna do the explaining.

Bassnectar If you've ever caught one of his shows, you're aware of the remixes Bassnectar drops for the real music lovers, crossing many a genre border. The tunes may go over the heads of the yougins, but they still dance. So why not a Miguel remix, too?

Dillon Francis Have we mentioned we like this guy? Do us a solid, D, and remix Miguel. Save us the trouble of trying to straddle two worlds already.
