Kygo Is First To Officially Remix “Starboy”

The first official remix of the highly praised collaboration of Daft Punk and The Weeknd, “Starboy”, is finally here, and by none other than Kygo.

Considering the status of Daft Punk as one of the biggest names in dance music history, remixing their track with The Weeknd could be seen as a daunting task. Perhaps that is why we haven’t seen any remixes of “Starboy” thus far. Kygo was up to the challenge and came through with a beautiful take on the original, out now on Republic Records! Not only is this track a fantastic take on the tune, but also is the only official remix of the massive track that has been released.

From the start, the remix carries Kygo’s signature sound while staying true to the vibe of the original track. The Norwegian producer initially gained recognition for his quality remixes, with beautiful takes on songs like Marvin Gaye’s “Sexual Healing” and Ed Sheeran’s “I See Fire.” While his career began as a remixer, this is only his second released remix of 2016. He has been busy creating his own album and playing shows across the world.

Kygo has had an extremely successful year–releasing his first album ‘Cloud Nine’ and even playing the Olympic Games Closing Ceremony. ‘Cloud Nine’ was widely acclaimed, with hits like “Firestone,” “Carry Me,” and “Raging” loved by fans everywhere. This past month, Kygo has played two sold-out shows at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles and is now back in the studio as the year comes to a close, making more music for us to enjoy. We are excited to see what is in store for Kygo in 2017, hopefully we will see more of his amazing music!
